Ask a bot instance for suggested questions

Deprecated since Strategy ONE (September 2025)

caution

The API has been deprecated and will be completely unavailable in the near future.

The API is deprecated due to the introduction of Strategy's new Auto Agent technology, which replaces the legacy Auto Bot system. Legacy Auto Bot support will be gradually discontinued after Strategy One (September 2025).

This workflow sample demonstrates how to ask a bot instance for suggested questions.
