Channel elements

Channel-elements are elements that are specific to a channel. These elements are present in the Chatbot sends and Chatbot receives sections in the chatbot editor.

Each channel has a different set of elements. Some elements are available only in one channel. Example: Apple Pay (Apple Messages for Business) and Single Product Message (WhatsApp). Some elements, such as Carousel, are available in multiple channels. However, the features and specifications of the element may be different in each channel.

For more information about the specifications of an element, refer to the Message Types sections in the channel documentation.

The following table shows the file formats for some of the chatbot elements, based on the channel.
