Overview of Code Actions
Execute custom code that is hosted on the Flow platform. Code actions are JavaScript that runs in a sandboxed environment and allows you to easily customize and extend Flow capabilities.
Limited execution time
When using cloud code the code execution or a call to a service must be done within 10 seconds.
Quick examples

}
Send text with quick replies
async payload => {
const text = new Text(`This is a reply text from your bot.`)

message.addResponse(text)
return message
}
