    into keyword key"""
    dialog = Bot.Bot().GetDialog()
    response = dialog.UserAsk("Tell us how you are satisfied with out JSM support?")

Using the function in a workflow

1. Open your workflow in Content > Workflows and add the Call function node.

2. In the Function name field, specify the function. Our ask_support_feedback function is created in my1 file, so it is referred to as wf.my1.ask_support_feedback.

3. Save the result in a variable, so you can use it in other nodes later on. The variable is defined in the Keep result in variable field.
