# CONFIRMATION\_DIALOG

`CONFIRMATION_DIALOG` Ask the user to confirm an action via the UI

### When to use it <a href="#when-to-use-it" id="when-to-use-it"></a>

Use `CONFIRMATION_DIALOG` before taking a payload action which might take a log time, be intrusive, take action against a remote system, or any other time your payload should warn the user before an action and give them time to cancel.

#### Syntax <a href="#syntax" id="syntax"></a>

```none
CONFIRMATION_DIALOG [text prompt]
```

**text prompt&#x20;*****required***

Arbitrary text shown to the user. The text should be kept short enough to fit on the device display.

### Results <a href="#results" id="results"></a>

`CONFIRMATION_DIALOG` will wait until the user has made a selection, pausing the payload.

`CONFIRMATION_DIALOG` prints a `1` as a return if the user continues or `0` if the user cancels.

`CONFIRMATION_DIALOG` exits with a return code of 0 under normal operation, and non-zero if the command fails.

### Examples <a href="#examples" id="examples"></a>

```bash
resp=$(CONFIRMATION_DIALOG "Continue the payload?") || exit 1 if [ "$resp" != "$DUCKYSCRIPT_USER_CONFIRMED" ]; then LOG "User cancelled!" exit 0 fi
```

Remember to enclose the prompt text in quotes if it contains spaces!

## 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://documentation.hak5.org/wifi-pineapple-pager/confirmation_dialog.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.
