### 1. **Message Based**&#x20;

Ideal for creating flexible, conversational experiences that adapt based on user responses. Perfect for lead capture, support queries, or dynamic decision-making paths.

### 2. **Order Based**&#x20;

Best suited for scenarios that require a strict sequence of steps—such as form submissions, ticket creation, or data collection—ensuring process consistency and completeness.

### 3. **CTWA Based**&#x20;

Designed to trigger specific flows when users click on a Click-to-WhatsApp Ad. This flow type helps convert ad clicks into structured conversations, ideal for high-intent lead capture and instant engagement.

### 4. **WhatsApp Form Based**&#x20;

Used to build structured form experiences within WhatsApp using native Flow elements like text inputs, dropdowns, checkboxes, and date pickers. Ideal for appointment bookings, sign-ups, registrations, and feedback collection.

## Welcome Trigger in the Flow

A Welcome Trigger automatically starts the chat flow when a user initiates a conversation with your bot. It serves as the entry point, greeting users and guiding them to the next steps in the interaction.

### **Keywords to Trigger Bot Flows**

Keywords play a crucial role in triggering specific bot flows, enabling the bot to respond appropriately based on user input.
