Building flows

Build and change flows with Ask xMap

Describe what you want; it builds, tests, explains and fixes.

Ask xMap sits at the bottom of the editor. Press the expand button to open it as a chat next to the canvas.

  • Build: describe the outcome and it picks the blocks and settings, links them, tests the flow on example data and repairs what the test finds. What is left to check is listed under its reply.
  • Change: send it to Slack instead, only places rated 4 or more, every Monday. Select a block first and it changes that block only.
  • Explain: ask anything about the flow or the product; it answers in words and changes nothing.
  • Rename the flow, or let it name one from what it does.

Every change can be undone with Undo this change under the reply. Each message uses credits; questions answered from the help are free.

When a request could mean several things (no city, no kind of place), Ask xMap asks one short question with buttons to pick from instead of guessing. Picking an answer builds the flow; a question costs no credits.
