@Flyto almost, working on reply codes. So that Homey can reply to you in a Group etc 😃 So for example you and Homey whatsapp are in the same group you can create a conversation with Homey 😅 In short, you can create a chatbot: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/8/1/813f9eabfc8de34b1f796fe46dd5734c317fab55.png) ---

Hey Martijn, just got started looking into building some flows, but as you’re asking; I think an Idea would be to be able to save the received messages into variables so the content of the message can be also used otherwise! e.g. send the content of the message to GPT to let it interpret the commands also is there an attribute in that WhatsApp client that lets differentiate between a regular message and an answer? e.g. “if message is answer to the last sent message” so the message “done” could refer to an information or call out given by Homey and resolut in different outcomes? > [@Valentin\_Ciopei](#): > > Huge thank you and please provide a link for donations. This app deserves it! totally agree, sent some donations as well 🙂 ---

nevermind about the variables, I realised the data is stored in tags and can be transfered still kinda new to Homey! ---

I think a flow card “Text includes (…) or (…) or (…) or (…)” to give different options within flow card for the same outcome, maybe 3? 4? Having new flowcharts quickly makes the flow very extensive 😃 ---

You can already do this with Logic app. You can get the text value from Whatspp and search for whatever you like in it and take actions. ![Screenshot 2023-11-12 at 10.40.26](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex025/uploads/athom/original/3X/d/b/db285fa16b4bc15e7c8e86e9ca594ad71754f1d0.png) [Previous page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=26) [Next page](https://community.homey.app/t/app-pro-whatsapp-simple-reliable-private/90749.md?page=28)
