While the Send a Message with attached buttons action block is still available for use in all commands and events, it is considered old and has been replaced by the Send or Edit a Message action block. We advise you to use the Send or Edit a Message block instead, which offers more functionalities and possibilities for your message.
If you cannot see the Send a Message with attached buttons action block in your actions list, disable the setting.
