Saving a Variable and displaying it
This should be an easy answer but I can't find any documentation on it. I want to be able to prompt the user and receive an answer. I then want to prompt the user again for another answer and use the variable from the first prompt in my Display Text. Example: My first prompt has "What is your name". I then save that to a variable named varName. I then go to the second Prompt and I want it to say "Hi, Brian, how are you today?". I want to take the varName and put it in the Display Text. How can that be accomplished. I am fairly new to Healthbot/Chatbot so any help is appreciated.

BrianBeard42 In this particular example, you would concatenate the text string and your variable together such as the following;
"Hi" + scenario.varName + "! How are you today?"
This should provide you the results you are looking for.
