What's new?

BREAKING CHANGES

In Flow Studio > Options (Choose one) control > Directive tab, added a checkbox with the label "Include choice options in the voice output".

This option allows the voice assistants to read the options.

You can select the “Say number Before Option” only after checking the “Include choice options in the voice output”. This option will let the voice assistants read a number before every option.

By default "Include choice options in the voice output" and "Say Number Before Option" will be unchecked.
