Some changes that are done as part of v4.0.98 Patch updates are listed here https://orbita.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OCS/pages/edit-v2/2143092942#Answers-v2.1 Please refer to them as well.
Flow Studio
Hide Message Bubble- This option is available only for Text box input type in a Single Input control. Check this checkbox if you need to hide the Single input control in the chatbot. By default it is unchecked. This overrides all the other options in the Text box input type ie. Hidden, Single line, and Multiline.
This helps when using an adaptive card. This option lets the bot pause and get the input from the User, which otherwise does not happen. More info in 3.3.9 Flow Studio Controls
The formatting of the date and phone number input type while getting inputs from the User in a chatbot is made better now.
For example, the user typing in 9876543210 will be formatted as +1 (987) 654-3210
For dates, when the user inputs as February 9 2022, the bot formats it to 02/09/2022
Newly introduced an option called “Enable continuation of flow after completion“ in the Link flow control. This will allow users to jump between flows. More information in https://orbita.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/OCS/pages/edit-v2/1659830303#Link-flow
One Output pin- This new option is in the Choose One control> Choice tab.
We will get only one output pin from the control in the flow studio canvas rather than showing outpin pins equivalent to the number of choice. By default, the checkbox is not checked.- PD-2972Getting issue details... STATUSPreviously on loading the flow studio listing page, the sorting was not working correctly. This is handled now.
The Agent control in the flow studio now supports Answers V2 KB. After choosing the v2 KB, we should choose the Primary question. In case we have v1 KB in the project, we will be able to choose the v1 KB in the Select Answers dropdown itself.

Now by using the property
send_advance_message
, we can pass different Value and Text data in the hook function. A simple use case will be in a Button action where the display text and the value passed to the backend can be different. Similar tosubmitQuery
property in v2 bot.
Sample code snippet
self.parent.OrbitaChatBotV3.hook('send_advance_message', `You chose an appointment for ${WEEKDAYS[formattedDate.getDay()]} ${MONTHS[formattedDate.getMonth()]} ${formattedDate.getDate()}, ${formattedDate.getFullYear()} at ${selectedTime}`, null, { date: selectedDate, time: selectedTime, timezone: timezone });
