Copy a slider block:

The copy block option can be used when you need to reuse a block that you previously created; you can copy that block and add it to your flow as it is or edit it according to the requirement.

The pasted block would appear on the block listing section and be stated as From Clipboard.

4. Edit the block if required or simply click Paste.

Deleting the slider block

4. Confirm deleting the selected block by clicking Yes, Delete it.

• If you delete a file block while an end user is engaged in a live session with the bot, the previous version of the flow will be rendered until they restart the conversation.
  

• After making changes, you will need to publish the flow for those changes to be reflected in an end user's session.

If the deleted block has dependencies, such as those given below, errors will be displayed.

Use case

From the online store Zylker Electronics, a customer was looking to purchase a phone case for under 30 USD. They used the store's filtering options to narrow down the selection and successfully found several phone covers that fit within their budget. This feature made it easy for the customer to identify affordable options.

Filtering as per the customer's budget

The customer wanted to buy a phone case that met both their financial and style preferences without exceeding their spending limit of 30 USD.

Bot prompt: Please select the price range for your phone cover:

Best practices

• Establish clear minimum and maximum values that are relevant to the context. Ensure the range is broad enough to cover all potential user needs.

• Provide descriptive labels for the minimum and maximum values to guide users. For example, use "Min Price" and "Max Price" for a price range slider.

• Choose a default value that makes sense in context and is helpful for most users. This can serve as a starting point that users can adjust if needed.

• Make sure the slider range is appropriate for the scenario. For example, in a pricing context, ensure the values reflect realistic pricing options for the products.

• Explain why the slider is being used and what the selected values represent. This can be done through a brief instructional message before the slider. 

Limitations

• The slider minimum value must be within 0 and 999999999

• The slider maximum value must be within 0 and 999999999

• The slider default value must be within 0 and 999999999

• Character limit for the labels are 100
