# Control flow: Close

The **Control Flow: Close** node will effectively end the conversation. It cannot be opened again. Any new interaction with this user will result in a new conversation being created, triggering the `__main__` dialog again.

On the [Phone channel](/studio/channels/phone.md), the text of the **Control flow: Close** node will be spoken to the user, and the conversation will be closed.

On text based channels, it hides the chat input, and/or shows a control that indicates that the conversation is over.

On channels that do not support any close controls, but are "single conversation", e.g. WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, etc, the next time a user starts chatting, a new conversation is opened.

{% hint style="info" %}
The **Control Flow: Close** node will trigger the system dialog `__closed__` to be triggered. By creating a flow with an entry node that is triggered by **closed**, you can influence what happens at closure.
{% endhint %}
