Linking Multiple Answers to One Intent in Zendesk
Can I link multiple answers to one intent in Zendesk bots?
Yes, you can link multiple answers to one intent in Zendesk bots. You can set up a "main menu" answer flow as the starting point for bot conversations and offer a series of common topics as options, linking to separate answers for each.
This setup allows you to create a more organized and user-friendly bot experience, where users can easily navigate through different topics and find the information they need.
