Show loader while Flow is running

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by

Hi,

 

I'm looking for my chatbot to show a loader/spinner/thinking bubbles while my Flow is running. Some of my Flows can take several seconds, and from an end user perspective you never know what's going on....

I've tried putting a couple "Show message" nodes in front of the Action call to Flow but they just get skipped and go right into the Flow. Then once the Flow is done, the previous message(s) get displayed along with the one(s) that follow the Flow. This seems very confusing to the end user.

 

Anyone have experience on showing a loader message before the Flow?

 

Thanks
