Using JS Function in Wabo.ai Bot Builder

Wabo.ai allows advanced users to enhance bot behavior by injecting custom JavaScript functions within any node. This feature gives you the flexibility to manipulate data, control flow, or perform complex operations dynamically inside your bot conversations.

🛠 When to Use the JS Function Action

To perform custom logic before or after a message
To manipulate user inputs or flow variables
To fetch or format data dynamically
To make flow execution smarter and context-aware

✅ Step-by-Step Guide to Use JS Function in a Bot Node
