I want to collect text answers and form responses from users, but I cannot find a dedicated 'Input Node' on the canvas. How do I ask a question and save the user's answer?

How do I capture user text input or create a form? Where is the Input node?
Best answer
In TeleGo, user inputs and questions are built directly inside the Message Node rather than requiring a separate input node.
How to ask a question and capture user input:
- Drag a Message Node onto your canvas.
- Click the Message node to open its settings panel on the right.
- In the Cards area, click Add Card → Input Question.
- Configure the question settings:
- Question Text: Type the prompt that the bot will send (e.g., "What is your email address?").
- Answer Mode:
- Open: Waits for the user to type arbitrary text or send a voice message.
- Options: Displays predefined button choices that the user taps.
- Save to Variable: Enter a variable name (e.g.,
user_email) to store the answer.
- Connect the node's output port to the next step in your scenario.
When a user reaches this node, the scenario automatically pauses, displays your prompt, and waits for the user to reply before proceeding.
