Validation

To validate the info provided by the visitors. You can validate the following input fields:

email - To validate the email address given by the visitor.
phoneno - To validate the phone number provided.
website - To validate the website address provided.
number - To validate the number or to allow just numbers in the field.
number(n-m) - To validate the number and you can also specify the "from" and "to" range of the number allowed.
string(n-m) - To validate the number and you can also specify the "from" and "to" to validate the length(number of characters) of the strings allowed.

Note: To mention the error message is your choice. If you skip "error", then the question will repeat without the error message until the visitor input is valid.

Copiedresult = Map();
response = Map();
response.put("action", "reply");

        "format": "email",
        "error": ["Seems like the value is invalid.","Please enter a valid email address"]
      }
    }
  ]);
prompt = Map();
prompt.put("param_name", "reply");
prompt.put("data", response);
result.put("prompt", prompt);
result.put("todo", "prompt");
return result;
