Where a recall can go

  • A later question. Greet the customer by name, or put an earlier answer into the wording of the next one.
  • The results page. Write the recommendation around what the customer told you.
  • A choice label. Personalize the options themselves, such as Hi {{ name }}, which of these suits you best?.
  • A slot title or description. Head a group of recommendations with the customer's own answer.
  • The no recommendations message. Say something specific when nothing matched.

Liquid goes further than a recall

A recall inserts one answer. A Liquid template reads every answer and every variable score through the quiz object, and changes the text on what it finds.
