Now you have to develop a bot with the components so that the bot can send request to user to opt-in to receive Recurring notifications.

To develop the components as a bot, you have to connect the Recurring Notification with the Start Bot Flow. Then you have to provide a title to the Start Bot Flow component.

Then drag and drop trigger component and configure trigger components by providing Keywords to the Trigger component and connect The Trigger component with the Start Bot Flow Component.

When a user triggers the bot, it will request the user to opt-in to to send recurring notifications either daily, weekly, and monthly.
