i have a question about chatbots with dialogflow.
I am currently building a chatbot in Dialogflow. I would like to add this chatbot to my website. My problem is that this chatbot should also contain buttons, that the user can click on this. I have built some buttons,but I can't see the buttons in the Dialogflow web demo. There are buttons on dialogflow console, but it isn't shown on the web demo. Does anyone know what that could be?
I only found it as a source kommunicate.io, which didn't really help me either.
Thanks for answers..
Dialogflow Web Demo does not support rich responses (buttons, cards, images etc..). For integrating it to your webpage you can either use third-party solutions like Kommunicate or build your own web wedge.
Yeah, DialogFlow web demo does not provide rich responses like the card, quick replies & suggestion chips. But you can use Dialog Flow messenger(New Feature) to add buttons & images. You've to use Custom Payload for getting a rich response.

I use Google Dialog Flow and I still created a Agent. I want to customize the appeareance of the chat window and I do not know how to do it. It seems like there is no options to do this in the DialogFlow Console. I have seen that there are products like Botcopy, but I want to do it by myself. Do I need to use the API to integrate the bot into my website if I want to change the looks?
the DialogFlow web widget is mean to be used for testing, you can hack the CSS and override the way it looks but it is not a recommended approach.
In order to integrate your DialogFlow chatbot on a website you can indeed use Botcopy or Kommunicate (both provide a Widget to add to the web site with some customisation options).
If you are a UI guru you want to build something yourself you can use the DialogFlow SDK https://github.com/googleapis/nodejs-dialogflow
Can you like with the Test Simulator have an embedded Google Action or use a Live chat style bot on a website with Google Actions responses? Are there any code labs or third party platforms that do this?
Yes, some of the 3rd party chat windows I know of:
- Smooch
- Kommunicate
You will have to use the Payload response to send specific components (such as cards, quick replies or images)
There's also this Github repository which allows you to set Google Actions replies and it will display it in chat:
https://github.com/mishushakov/dialogflow-web-v2
Or you can write your own in React or Vue.
Actions on Google is the platform for Google Assistant developers and have own library and components. You can use these features and components only on Google Assistant projects, since every platform has different features and capability. If you need to create a chatbot with these kind of features, you should check platform's docs eg. Facebook, Telegram...
If you want to create a chatbot which has some rich responses, Dialogflow has own attributes such as Card, Suggestion. So, you can build your agent and integrate Dialogflow (not Google Action).
You can check here for platform and Dialogflow's response and payload ability.
I have chat bot developed using Microsoft bot frame work in , in chat bot we have a option for customer to ask a question for that we need to make it voice enabled as of now we are using node.js and azure for development . i wanted to know how we can achieve it ?
On google chrome, mic can be enabled easily. Google chrome will also translate the voice for you. First follow below link, see if you are using same framework : https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/bot-service/bot-service-channel-connect-webchat-speech?view=azure-bot-service-3.0
Post that following link can also help enabling the voice. Can't Chrome's speechSynthesis work offline?
You can enable voice on Firefox as well using bing translate. This link will help you: https://github.com/Microsoft/BotFramework-WebChat/issues/1141
I have a Dialogflow agent with the Web Demo integration enabled. When using the Web Demo I can interact with the agent by talking and typing. However the response is always text only, even if the interaction was by voice.
I would like to hear the response. Is there a setting somewhere that I need to enable audio in the response? Or is this simply not possible?
Use the speechSynthesis API.

From the docs it seems like SpeechResponse is the only documented type of response you can return:
https://developers.google.com/actions/reference/conversation#SpeechResponse
Is it be possible to load an image or some other type of media in the assistant conversation via API.AI or the Actions SDK? Seems like this is supported with api.ai for FB, other messengers:
https://docs.api.ai/docs/rich-messages#image
Thanks!
As of today, Google Actions SDK supports Conversation Actions, by building a better Voice UI, which is integrated with Google Home.
Even API.AI integrations with Google Actions can be checked out here, which shows currently no support for images in the response.
When they provide integrations with Google Allo, then in the messaging interface, they might start supporting images, videos etc.
That feature seems to be present now. You can look it up in the docs at https://developers.google.com/actions/assistant/responses
Note: But images would be supported only on devices with a visual output. So Google Home would obviously not be able to do it. But the devices with screen do support a card with an image.
Pro Tip: Yes you can
What you want to do is represent your (image/video) as a URL within API.AI and render the URL as a (image/video) within your app
