Multiple Choice Question Node

The Multiple Choice Question Node allows you to ask users a question and present them with predefined answer options. You can write the question using the rich text editor, add multiple choice options, and assign a variable name to store the user's selected answer. The next node in the flow will only be triggered after the user has selected one of the options.

Features​

  • Rich text editor for question content
  • Multiple choice options management
  • Variable name assignment for storing selected answer
  • Support for variable mentions in questions using "@"
  • Flow control - next node triggers only after selection
  • Answer validation and storage

Best Practices​

  1. Question Design

    • Write clear, specific questions that guide users to the correct option
    • Use formatting to improve readability
    • Keep questions focused and avoid asking multiple things at once
    • Consider using variable mentions to personalize questions

  2. Option Design

    • Keep options clear and concise
    • Ensure options are mutually exclusive
    • Use consistent formatting across options
    • Limit the number of options to avoid overwhelming users
    • Consider the order of options based on importance or frequency

  3. Variable Naming

    • Choose descriptive variable names that reflect the type of answer expected
    • Use consistent naming conventions across your flow
    • Avoid spaces and special characters in variable names
    • Example variable names: "preferred_contact", "service_type", "satisfaction_level"

  4. Flow Control

    • Plan your flow to handle different selections
    • Consider using the selected answer in subsequent nodes
    • Remember that the next node will only trigger after a selection
    • Use the variable name to reference the selected answer in later nodes

  5. Variable Usage

    • Type "@" in the editor to see available variables
    • Default variables include user's Telegram first name and last name
    • Previous node answers are automatically available as variables
    • In Open Question nodes, you can set a custom variable name
    • Example: If you create an Open Question node asking "What's your favorite color?" and set its variable name to "favoriteColor", you can use it as "@favoriteColor" in later nodes
