# Alert

A small window with text and buttons over the screen. Handy for asking the person again: "Cancel the order?" — "No" / "Yes, cancel".

## Settings

**General**

- **"Header"**, **"Sub header"** and **"Message"**.
- **"Closing": "Close when tapping outside"**.
- **"Translucent in iOS"** — a translucent window background in the iOS style.

**Buttons** — up to 10. Each has:

- **"Button name"**;
- **"Role"** — "Default", "Cancel" or "Destructive". The role changes the look of the button.

## Exits

Each button is a separate exit, for example `Button "Yes, cancel"`. A button without a link can be left just to close the alert.

## Specifics

- An alert cannot be the start block.
- An alert has no input fields. If you need to ask something, build a [modal](https://support.watbot.org/mini-apps/blocks/screens/modal) with fields.
