How to retrieve the answer and put it in a TEXT tag?
For number or boolean type answers, I had success using the “Convert” functions, but to convert to text, the input variable must be Number or Boolean.
I believe the answer is already stored in a text tag (provided by the flowcard itself), named ‘Reply’:
Yes, but we can’t do anything with this text tag, if we haven’t stored it in a TEXT variable.
That’s strange.
I made this simple flow in which I send the response ‘John Doe’ to the timeline using the Reply tag. This works; no need to store it in another variable.

I could really use this card, but I can’t find it. Is it not available on a pro 2019?
If you click the ‘Bonjour tout le monde’ (Hallo wereld) field in the timeline card, you’ll find a tag icon at the end of the input field.
Click that icon and you get a list of all available tags and variables. The top one should contain the tags that are generated by flowcards in this flow. The ‘Reply’ tag is in that part of the list
Based on the change log for the Homey Pro 2023+ models and prior Homey Pro models, it seems this card is unfortunately only available for the former group of homeys.
For the pro 2016-2019 you can use the Telegram app way, Wim!

I want to ask a question and reply with a time (e.g. 14:00) and then start a flow when it is 1400. It looks like the Ask a question Flow card still doesn’t help with this.
Is there any word on whether this function will also come to the homey pro 2019 edition.
currently I use the telegram workaround Peter_kawa mentioned above, but I would very much like to switch to the homey feature
I guessume not, Jasper. But send your requests to support I’d say.
Fully agree, the possibility to enter a start time should be a basic functionality.
“Mr. Workaround” says:
This is (for now) possible with use of the Timey app.
This is a simple[1] example
The Question card can look like this:
¹) with simple I mean, there can be many conditions we can think of, which should prevent the “listening” flow from executing (certain) action cards

Thanks Peter. I wasn’t aware of Timey.
