Display message | Smart Flows

The Display message flow block shows a message to the user during or after a flow's execution. This is helpful when you want to provide extra information to a custom data set's questions for end users or if you want to inform flow users on what their next step should be after completing the flow run.

Example: End users must select a color to input during their flow. This can be achieved by putting the Display message block in the same zone as the Get user input block:
