Redirect to Existing Chatbot Tree

The Level Three FAQ chatbot is very effective in handling 1 to 1 question and answer reply. However, if you want to incorprate a step by step conversation flow, you will need to set up the redirect function for redirecting user to a specific chatbot flow.

Please make sure you have choosn "Redirect" as the message type and input the "treeID" & "compositeID" you want user to be redirected to on all the corresponding FAQ entries. For details on FAQ data source format, please see here.

What is your Result?

1. When user types the question (e.g. How much time do you need to build a WhatsApp chatbot?), the FAQ module will scan the entire data source to see if there is an exact match in the keyword group(s).

2. Once matched with an FAQ entry, instead of displaying the answer of the corresponding entry from the data source, the user will be redirected to a tree node with the text response.
