# Deflection Flow Node

Use this node to transfer a conversation from a voice call to a chat channel, where the customer can interact via automated or live chat.

!!! Note

This feature is only available when using a Twilio account. It is not supported for SIP trunk setups.

## Configure the Node

1. **Custom Name**: Enter a name to identify the node.

2. **Deflection Setting**: Define the deflection flow. Select one of the following trigger options:

   * **Trigger using user selection**: Let the customer choose between:
     * **Chat Automation** — routes to an automated chat agent.
     * **Live Chat Agent** — connects to a human agent.
   * **Trigger using Automation Context**
