Hello and good evening , Is it possible to configure the bot to respond only to specific individuals? In other words, to refuse to answer general inquiries but to respond to specific people we add to a list

How are you going to deploy this bot, through a widget on website or any integration?

We don't directly support an allowed user list feature. You can add a feature request for this, and our team will review it. In the meantime you can try setting up a flow with a session start event and then validating the contact number against a series of your number(using code execution) and routing to either blocked or the AI response paths.

I need the feature ASAP. In the meantime, I can use the Studio to set it up, correct?
