Chatbot sends contact information (we will use the already configured logic)
Chatbot asked: “Please confirm that the information provided is correct” and show 2 buttons:
Confirm
Decline

Follow the next steps to build this case:
Select the element User task
Select Beesender: Ask question from the list
Fill in the fields:

Message: Please confirm that the information provided is correct
Button 1: Confirm
Button 2: Decline
Add element OR
Click on a flow and set the condition:
parameter Answer from Beesender: Ask question element == parameter Button 1 from Beesender: Ask question element
Add another flow from element OR and set the condition:
parameter Answer from Beesender: Ask question == parameter Button 2 from Beesender: Ask question element
Add the last flow from element OR to Beesender: Ask question element and select flow type = Default type – this is necessary so that if the client doesn't select the buttons, but writes something, the process doesn't break, and repeats the previous question
Add Beesender: Text message element on Confirm flow and field in fields:
ChatId, ClientId, OperatorId
Text: Thank you, the information is confirmed
Add Beesender: Ask question element on Decline flow and field in fields:
