Phone and Email Validation Guide Via OTP

Phone and Email are two different validators that can be used together or separately and have the same functionality, validate if the phone number and/or email registered in the flow (or Chatbot) belongs to the end-user. This is done by sending an OTP (One-Time Password) code that the user must return as a response.

The OTP code can be delivered as a text message, WhatsApp message, or phone call in the case of phone validation. For email validation, the code can be sent as a message in the inbox of the registered email address. You can configure the number of retries allowed for this validation, the maximum value is 3.
