Structured questions

A structured question card has a short header and 2–4 options. The first option is the recommended default. Pick an option or type your own answer.

In Uninterrupted mode, these questions are answered automatically with the first option.

Follow-up buttons

Under a finished answer, Suggested follow-ups lists one to three next steps, such as:

  • Undo this change
  • Verify again
  • Retry
  • Explain this

Clicking a button sends it as a normal message in the same thread.
