Hello, can we set this chatbot to menu/button-based chatbots (questions for user) then the user selects one after that the chatbot will reply to the selected input question by button?

is this "Database/Knowledge base – Some of the facts needed to answer user queries should be obtained from persistent storage (e.g. data files or database stored on disk) instead of “hard coding” them into the program. For example, when a user asks a “virtual banking assistant” what types of accounts they have, the answer should be a list of accounts (current account, savings account, FD account etc) obtained from the database.
