I can’t find (after a quick search) a post about this function, which I like to share.

#### _How to send a question from a flow, and let the user enter a value, which is then used in the flow conditions / actions of that flow._

With this question and ideas of @Hamster, I made this example flow.

Conditions:

- the flow should not respond to any message with coïncidental valid values
- the entered value should be within a defined value range
- the user should be informed when an invalid value has been entered
- when the value needs to be numbers only, the returned value needs to be converted from ‘text’ type to ‘numeric’ type
