The easiest way to create an API.AI bot with Botpress
botpress install api.ai
The API.AI module should now be available in your bot UI
This module has two modes: Default (amend incoming events) and Fulfillment (respond automatically).
This mode will inject understanding metadata inside incoming messages through the API.AI middleware.
Events will have an nlp property populated with the extracted metadata from API.AI.
Tip: Use this mode if you want to handle the conversation flow yourself and only want to extract entities from incoming text. This is great for programmers.
bp.hear({'nlp.action': 'smalltalk.person'}, (event, next) => {
bp.messenger.sendText(event.user.id, 'My name is James')
})This mode will check if there's an available response in the fulfillment property of the API.AI response and respond automatically. No code required.
Note: Works only with single-response text. We do not support Cards and quick responses.
Tip: This is great for non-programmers or if all your conversation logic is hosted on API.AI.
