We introduced a new style for the bot dialog components. Looks good, right?
This update also makes it easier to see which type of button you're creating
In the background, we have switched from one database type to another, making the bots and the platform a lot faster. We will gradually move bots to this new database, so it might take a few weeks for your bot to enjoy the performance benefits.
A lot of customers use bots in different parts of their organization. They have both a bot to help support their customers, as well as an internal HR bot. Often, these bots process sensitive information that should only be accessible by the team building that specific bot. That's why we have introduced team member roles & bot access.
Enterprise customers can now restrict bots to only be accessible by certain team members. Furthermore, you can set a team member as "read-only" so they can see how the bot is configured, but not change anything.
Read all about how to use team member roles & bot access:
We released new types of entities. You can find all information about them here:
Save a copy of your bot in an export. Exporting a bot will result in a JSON file that you can download to your computer.
This JSON file can be imported again to overwrite a bot with the data that is in the JSON file. Read more here:
You can now change the order of buttons, quick replies, carousel items and go to's using drag and drop.
Change the language of a bot dialog to immediately add or edit the translations for a message or button while you're creating or editing the flow.
Customize text messages the way you want them to look, and add links to other pages and bot dialogs, using rich text messages. You can read all about them here.
