Navigation
Navigation: Select the action that takes place when you click on one of the options. To do this, Navigate on option click should be activated. Otherwise, navigation is only triggered when the Navigation button is clicked. Navigate to the next screen of your flow or go to a specific screen of your flow. Or define specific rules for the navigation that react to the user's input. Alternatively, you can select no action.
Navigate on option click: Navigation is triggered immediately with a click and without clicking on a button. However, based on experience, we recommend placing a button (more information on our best practices here).
