Use Conversation for interviews, coaching, support intake, and other exchanges that need participant responses. Keep the dialogue inside this node; canvas connections cannot create cycles.

​
Configure

  1. Write Instructions covering the objective, boundaries, and when to finish.
  2. Bind inputs such as a question bank, customer context, or results from an earlier Task.
  3. Define required Output fields when collecting structured information. Collection is a preset of Conversation.
  4. Configure Completion and time and Inactivity. Select Approved read tools if the dialogue needs them.
Model completion, minimum duration, maximum duration, and inactivity are independent controls. By default, inactivity check-ins begin after 10 seconds of waiting for the participant. See Conversation timing for defaults, examples, and thinking pauses.

​
Outcomes

Only complete guarantees structured output. Other endings retain the transcript. Route them explicitly when later steps require collected fields.

​
Scenario: conduct an interview and assess it

Bind a question bank and instruct the Conversation to interview the candidate, ask relevant follow-ups, and avoid supplying answers. Set a 45-minute maximum and enable inactivity check-ins so the interviewer can offer clarification when the candidate is silent. Route complete, time_limit, inactive, and user_ended to an assessment Task. Bind the interview Transcript explicitly and instruct the Task to mark unasked or unanswered topics as unassessed. Follow it with a second Conversation that explains the assessment and answers the candidate’s questions. Question-count instructions guide the model; they are not enforced progress counters. Use the time policy when the interview needs a scheduled duration.
