I am using Dialogflow and fullfilment for dynamic response and integration has been done with Hangout. Text response is working fine. But when i use rich media like CARDS (Hangout API), It is not working. Can you please let me know what was i am missing or how to use cards for hangouts using dialogflow-fullfilment agent?

I wrote a blog about this, since I've figured some small quirks.
The best is to test this first within the Dialogflow UI console, by choosing custom payloads for Hangouts.
Note:
The first key can't be called cards, but it has to be named to hangouts
This hangouts key points to an object, not an array (of cards)
Have a look into this blog to get further details. (For example on using this with webhook code) How to build chatbots for Hangouts with Dialogflow by using custom payloads and cards.
I've created a basic app with a chatbot that can respond to what I type using DialogFlow and Angular. It is hosted locally. Now I want to have that chatbot respond to what I type with cards, lists and such. Like how Messenger has templates. I want to have a custom payload sent to me in response to what I send. Can anyone please help me? (NOTE: iam using the v2api)
Dialogflow supports rich message response to only certain platforms that it has listed on its website for ex. Facebook, google assistance etc. To display rich message you need to code it out.
I'm creating a chatbot for a Facebook page to solve people's questions and I wanted to make the bot messages 1 or 2 seconds of delay between each of the bot's replies. Could someone tell me how to do it in dialog flow? I couldn't find any answer around my research so hopefully someone could help me.
This isn't possible if you're using Dialogflow's built-in rich messages. It also wouldn't be possible using only webhook fulfillment and the Dialogflow Facebook integration, as you can only deliver a full set of messages as a reply at one time, and can't specify how they are delivered.
The only way to achieve that level of control would be to build the bot yourself (perhaps using an existing Messenger bot framework), and make calls from that code to Dialogflow to handle natural language understanding.
My FB-NodeJS-API prototype is not working correctly because my webhook is receiving the bot respond which is then sent to API.AI.
I need to set a condition where only a user's message should be received on the webhook request or only user's message should be sent to API.AI.
Can anyone advise me on this?
Can you explain the problem better? Please add the relevant code.
The bot response should go the user, not the webhook. The user input will come to the webhook.
I would suggest getting the bot to work without API.AI first and then adding support. My bot is in node.js so you may just want to jump to the source code.
For more information on setting up a bot see my article Facebook Bots for Fun and Profit
The example bot is DMS Software Bot
The source code is Github fb-robot
In Facebook's documentation they refer to wit.ai Bot Engine, but I can't find anywhere online where its explained how to connect the Story that you build in Wit with your Facebook Messenger App?
Wit.ai needs an input - user input. Sentence, phrase, word - to give you back the analysed results.
So first when you say "your Facebook Messenger app" - you need to make sure you are handling the messenger part by itself: have a code in your language of preference running on the server\your laptop which can receive the text which is sent to the messenger account on Facebook.
When you get that working, you will have to use one of Wit.ai libraries for the code language you are using to pass that phrase you receive from the user chatting through the messenger to Wit.ai "library" which will communicate it "to the wit.ai stories" you have and get the result from them.
For example for Python:
Library to handle FB Messenger chatting
Wit.ai library to pass the user input "to stories and get result"
You can integrate Wit to any messaging API. Using the Messenger Send/Receive API for example, you will be able to get and receive messages from/to Messenger users. Wit.ai can then parse the messages and predict the next response.
Here is an example in Node js: https://github.com/wit-ai/node-wit/blob/master/examples/messenger.js
I reviewed the latest updates on wit.ai. It seems that Wit.ai does not have an in-built integration with Facebook Messenger. That is, you can't plug it into Facebook Messenger directly by using the page access tokens etc.
What you'll need to do instead is set up a webhook where Messenger will send callbacks with the details of the user's message. If you want you can enable Facebook's in-built NLP too.
Then inside your webhook, send a call to Wit.ai, and get its output in JSON. Then you must process the JSON and send a reply back to the customer using a Sendmessage API call.
It's a bit long-winded, but if you have this setup, you can potentially use any AI engine in the backend. Including wit.ai or dialogflow.
