# Ask with Prompt
When you need to ask the user for info interactively you should normally use [*CLI Option*s with Prompt](options/prompt.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, because they allow using the CLI program in a non-interactive way (for example, a Bash script could use it).
But if you absolutely need to ask for interactive information without using a *CLI option*, you can use `typer.prompt()`:
{* docs_src/prompt/tutorial001.py hl[5] *}
Check it:
<div class="termy">
```console
$ python main.py
# What's your name?:$ Camila
Hello Camila
```
</div>
## Confirm
There's also an alternative to ask for confirmation. Again, if possible, you should use a [*CLI Option* with a confirmation prompt](options/prompt.md){.internal-link target=_blank}:
{* docs_src/prompt/tutorial002.py hl[5] *}
Check it:
<div class="termy">
```console
$ python main.py
# Are you sure you want to delete it? [y/N]:$ y
Deleting it!
// This time cancel it
$ python main.py
# Are you sure you want to delete it? [y/N]:$ n
Not deleting
Aborted!
```
</div>
## Confirm or abort
As it's very common to abort if the user doesn't confirm, there's an integrated parameter `abort` that does it automatically:
{* docs_src/prompt/tutorial003.py hl[5] *}
<div class="termy">
```console
$ python main.py
# Are you sure you want to delete it? [y/N]:$ y
Deleting it!
// This time cancel it
$ python main.py
# Are you sure you want to delete it? [y/N]:$ n
Aborted!
```
</div>
## Prompt with Rich
If you installed Rich as described in [Printing and Colors](printing.md){.internal-link target=_blank}, you can use Rich to prompt the user for input:
{* docs_src/prompt/tutorial004.py hl[2,6] *}
And when you run it, it will look like:
<div class="termy">
```console
$ python main.py
# Enter your name 😎:$ Morty
Hello Morty
```
</div>
