Overview

The Decision node presents the user with multiple choice options and routes the conversation based on their selection. Each option creates a separate output connection that can lead to different conversation paths.

How It Works

Render Phase: Displays a message with multiple choice options to the user
User Selection: The user selects one of the presented options
Route Selection: The conversation flows through the output handle corresponding to the selected option's ID
Data Storage: Both the option ID and label are stored in a variable for later reference

Dynamic Branching

Each option you configure creates a unique output handle on the node. Connect each output to different nodes to create branching conversation paths. For example:

"Yes" option → Confirmation path
"No" option → Alternative path
"Maybe" option → Follow-up questions path

Output Variable

The selected option is stored as an object containing both the id and label, making it easy to reference either value in subsequent nodes:

You selected: {{decision.label}}
Option ID: {{decision.id}}
