Passing parameter form playbook to flow to playbook

Hello everyone,

As you know, with the conversational agent, we cannot create a loop or recursion, which is a problem for me because the client can never go back. I tested this configuration:

Playbook 1: Start – it analyzes the question and transfers it to the most appropriate playbook.

Let’s imagine I end up in Playbook 2, which answers the client’s question, but the client has another question on a different topic.

Currently, the conversational agent allows pointing from Playbook 1 to Playbook 2, but not from Playbook 2 to Playbook 1.

So, if the client has another question that Playbook 2 doesn’t handle, I contact a flow where I record the client’s question and point it to Playbook 3 (which redirects to the correct playbook). We could also imagine pointing back to Playbook 1.

My issue is that even if the question is passed as a parameter from the flow to the playbook, the playbook doesn't answer the question. It just says "Hello, how can I assist you?" as if it were a new conversation. Has anyone successfully captured a question from a playbook, passed it to a flow, and reopened the playbook to answer the client’s question?
