How do I save which checkbox a user selects?
I'd like to be able to save the user selected checkbox into a database.
For example:
I have a checkbox that has two choices (yes and no)
I'd like to be able to save which choice the user selects (yes or no) into my database (nocodb block/google sheets) or simply save it into a variable so I can easily save it into the database.

Database concern
Hi everyone. I'm a new typebot user and I'm having fun with it so far. I'm amazed with what it can do as well.
I have a question as I cannot seem to find it here. Can I make use of the typebot and have it retrieve data from google spreadsheet or any free database?
My goal is to do the following:
1. User enters his/her details (name, occupation, etc.)
2. If the user uses the chatbot again, the details he/she previously entered will be saved. Maybe in google sheets or a database. (Not just on the same session).
Now, the chatbot will ask the user if he/she has tried the typebot before. If he/she says yes, the typebot will try and search for his/her data so that the chatbot knows who he/she is talking to. This way, the user doesn't need to enter his/her details repetitively every time.
So, I can create a block, and if I can verify that the user exists in my data, I can immediately "jump" to a different block.
Thank you for your help!
I also have an additional question. I was trying to link the google sheets but it shows that typebot may access all my google sheets information. Does that mean it can access other data even if it's not linked to typebot?
