Get Message

This block pauses the script execution while waiting for caller input and the subsequent block is executed when either a message is received or the timeout elapses without any response from the caller.

Properties	Values	Description
Timeout	Integer	Number of seconds, in the range 1-600, to wait for a response from the caller. The default is 300. Note: If the value is 0 or greater than 600, then 600 is set. If the value is negative, the block is skipped and the next block in the script is executed.
Return Value	String	Name of a variable that contains the caller’s input. If the timeout is reached without or before the caller input, an empty value is set. Note: The value must not be an empty string. If the value is empty, the block is skipped and the next block in the script is executed.
