What to do when the bot cannot find the items
When the bot cannot find available items, it goes to the Failure block. Add a Bot response block there to redirect it. This will let the chatbot start the process again.
Use the Quick reply response to give the user the option to circle back with a button click. In the configuration, choose the Go to block button type and the correct block from the bot structure.
