Input options

Hi,

While searching for products on a web site like amazon, i like the bot to provide options for user to choose filtering the data. For example, bot shows a drop down of “lowest” , “hightest”, “best seller” etc. User can select one option which can be used in data filtering.

What are the other ways of providing options to users other than a drop down?

Thank you,

@A_Learner,

You can take the data from excel file, data services, string assets, user form.

We got lots of options. Choose the one best suited.

@A_Learner

If attended bot then input dialog or forms are the ways

If unattended…

  1. if you use assets then for every product the same value would be used from start to end of process…basically create an asset and get the values
  2. If you need for each transaction or search then use create form task and create a action center task
  3. There are other ways as well which are more complex for the scenario

Cheers

Data services - create an entity and provide the right read write access to the users. Ask user to update the desired filter in the entity using message box. Once user confirm, follow this for more details on how to get it.

Asset- create a string type asset and ask user to update desired filter by comma seperate. Once updated, use get asset to read asset and split by comma.

User form - design a user form to get filter criteria from user. Follow this on how to get the values.
