Hey @gabriel f11​ 👋🏼

 

You can collect information from customers through the use of a 'data attribute' in a Custom Bot path but I believe currently bots aren't compatible with WhatsApp. So you won't be able to collect the information from users through WhatsApp using this Custom Bot.

 

This would be a feature request! I can definitely flag this with our Product team for you 🚀
