Nodes are blocks you use to build conversation flows for your chatbot. Each node is a step in the flow shown differently on the canvas.
There are 4 main types of nodes:
1. **Display Information Nodes** - To show messages, images, cards to users.
2. **Data Input Nodes** - To collect info from users like name, email, questions.
3. **Processing Nodes** - To handle data and make conversation flow decisions.
4. **Integration Nodes** - To connect to APIs, Salesforce, Google Sheets, Calendar, etc.
## Add a Node
To add a new node, simply click the **'Add node'**
## Edit a Node
To edit a node you have already created, click the pen icon button. This will open the node for editing so you can make any changes needed.
## Connecting Nodes
To connect one node to another and build the conversation flow, simply click the **"+"** sign at the bottom of the node. This will allow you to draw a line connecting to the next node in the chatbot flow.
## **Deleting Node**
You can delete any node at any time by simply clicking on the trash bin icon located on the right side of the node.
## Redirecting to different path
To guide the conversation towards a different path, utilize the **"Trigger Path"** node and choose the desired path for redirection.
**Note** - Each and every node has a certain limitation with respect to the channel over which it will be used, you can check the channels by hovering on the **'Supported on channels'**.
