# OTP Menu

An OTP (One-Time Password) is a random pin code that is sent via SMS to a customer as a method of verification.&#x20;

The *OTP Menu* node can be used at any point in your workflow to trigger this verification process. When a customer reaches this point in the workflow, a random OTP will automatically be generated and sent to the customer and the customer will be asked to enter the OTP they've received.&#x20;

Depending on the result of verification (i.e., success, failure, error), the customer can be routed to another step or workflow.

{% hint style="warning" %}
The OTP is sent via Clickatell's One API. [One API](https://docs.clickatell.com/channels/one-api/one-api-documentation/) must be set up in your user portal for this node to function correctly.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://guides.clickatell.com/flow/user-facing-nodes/display-nodes/otp-menu.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
