# Flow

Flow action block is used to segment parts of your chatbot tree into smaller flows.

For example, if you have three items in your menu like Explore wotSABot / Talk to sales / Support, instead of building all the flows in one tree, you will build three flow with the same names. So that each flow has only its flow in it.
