In a flow
“When a button is clicked, ask follow-up.”
Ask "Can you do Saturday evenings?" before deciding.
What it does
Ask the applicant a question in their DMs. Their answer is posted under the review post. After it, the member of the flow is the applicant, so Give role or Send DM goes to them. It's a step: it runs when the white wire reaches it, then the flow carries on from its Then pin. It gives 3 values later steps can use. Find it under Applications in the palette.
When to use it
Use it for applications: ask the applicant a question in their DMs. Their answer is posted under the review post. After it, the member of the flow is the applicant, so Give role or Send DM goes to them.
When not to
If nothing should change in Discord, a value node or a check is lighter.
