Dialogflow in-depth study


Dialogflow (any version) integration is currently available only as a Chat Websites Action (starting with XCALLY Motion Version 2.0.71) and as an Open Channel Action (starting with XCALLY Motion Version 2.3.6). In this context you can, for example, let a chat or an open channel interaction be managed by a Bot (according to Intents, Entities and Fallback Rules defined on Dialogflow) and make your Agent chime in conversation only when needed.


Remember to set on Dialogflow the intent "end of conversation", that will be considered as the end of the customer-bot interaction before to end the session or connect the customer to an agent, according to your action flow rules.

The agent will take the bot place from that moment on and open the whole interaction history.Do you want to know more about Dialogflow integration? click here


Using Dialogflow to create a ChatBot: an Example

Dialogflow API Keys

First thing to do on Dialogflow is to create an Agent.
After your agent is created you will be able to retrieve the API Keys to be used in the XCALLY Dialogflow application: see the Client access token field on Dialogflow please.

Insert please your Dialogflow Client access token inside the XCALLY Dialogflow application Key field:


Dialogflow Intents

After the agent is created, you can proceed with your Intent creation: basically intents define the expected customer questions (named Training phrases) and related Bot answers (Text responses).
