Enhancements

The below enhancements are new functionality items in this version.

1. Use the "Full Name" user property to collect and correctly parse out user's First and Last Name

Instead of asking your user's for their First and Last name in separate nodes, simply save their response as "Full Name" and we will intelligently parse out the First Name and the Last Name into their own properties. So you get the convenience of simplifying the bot but maintain the individual data points for your lead list or CRM.

And when you want to use their full name in a node message, just add the "Full Name" property into the message area and the bot will combine First and Last name.

2. Adding additional URL Triggers

Updated the experience a little to create a new URL entry when you begin adding the initial URL. Its okay to leave the second one empty, we just wanted to make it easier if you are configuring your bot to work on several different URLs.
