By default, Airkit stores the output of this Data Operation in an auto-created variable called messages that can then be passed into subsequent operations. The value of messages indicates whether or not the message was successfully sent to the designated Conversation.
📘 Messages can only be sent to Conversations occurring in deployment. Unlike most Data Operations, the Send Message to Conversation Data Operation cannot be run without referring to a deployed application. Before you can test any instance of this Data Operation, it must be able to refer to a published Conversation Chat Bot. For more on how to publish a Conversation Chat Bot, see Configuring Conversation Chat Bots.
