## Configuring a start trigger for a Flow

The start trigger is an entry point for a bot to begin conversation with the user. You can define start trigger using Intents, Entities, Event, or Page URL.

For detailed instructions, see [how to configure each trigger type](https://docs.yellow.ai/docs/platform_concepts/studio/build/Flows/configureflow).

## Connecting two nodes 

In a conversational flow, a connection is the path that guides the user step by step through the conversation. Connecting nodes establish logical transitions between different points in the dialogue, allowing the bot to respond appropriately to the user's input .

Each node has a starting point, just click on the point and select the appropriate node.

## Editing a node

You can edit a node to improve the conversation over time by listening to feedback from users and analyzing data.

To edit a node, click on the node where you can edit the node based on your requirements.

## Clonning a node

Cloning a node simplifies the process of creating duplicate copies for reuse within the flow. This saves valuable time and effort in content creation by eliminating the need to recreate similar content from scratch.

To clone a node, click on the **more options** iocn > **Clone** option.

:::note
When you clone a node containing a variable, the cloned node won't automatically select the variable. You will need to reassign the variable manually.
