Managing intents in google dialogflow - dialogflow-es

I am New to the Google dialogflow.
I created the Agent and intents.
Now i gave some user utterances (Training Phase) in intent. When user input related to the training phase response is coming.
User input other than the utterances it is going to fallback intent.
But i need user input does not matches to the utterances dialogflow must give the appropriate response as user need.
how to solve the situation.
Thanks in advance

I believe there are two options for your situation:
Create more intents and train them to improve your agent's accuracy for the intents. This is what you are supposed to do if you have a lot of training data. If not, try the option 2.
Create a custom Fallback Intent with an input/output context.
Option 1. is obvious like sid8491 is saying.
Option 2. is kind of a hack, but I think it can solve your situation by providing the correct input context and solved mine too.
One example is when you want to ask users to write feedback. Since users can write any feedback (i.e. it's hard to train the feedback intent with data beforehand), this is where a custom fallback intent comes in. Since you expect feedback from your user, you set an input context for your custom feedback fallback intent and users response (feedback) will match your feedback intent.
You can create a custom Fallback Intent by clicking the three dots right next to "CREATE INTENT" in Intent tab.
Hope it helps.

How can I trigger intent user free input

I have a bot that should collect feedback.
For example:
Bot: Leave your feedback
User: Everything is great!
My idea was to use a fallback intent for this. But the problem is that the bot has many other intents that can react to this input.
For example, if a user writes the word - email to a user in feedback, another intent is triggered.
How can you implement the preservation of the input in this case?
Create an intent to collect this free form feedback. You will need to trigger this intent with an event or based on earlier user input with training phrases like "I want to tell you something" or "provide feedback", etc.
Once they are in this intent, you can use a parameter with #sys.any as the entity in a parameter to collect that feedback.
Here is what that looks like:
In that example there is a default response configured and you could customize the response or even enable fulfillment to send the input to a Cloud Function or webhook for processing, etc.

Is there any way to answer unsaved question in intent in dialogflow

During Chatbot Creation with Dialogflow, suppose user asked some question which wasn't save in intent then how the System will respond that question, in case I'm getting such question, then how we'll deal with it?
When creating a Dialogflow bot you train your bot to respond to phrases by adding them to intents. Any phrases that Dialogflow cannot match to your intents will be handled by a fallback intent. Each Dialogflow bot will have atleast 1 fallback intent called the Default Fallback intent.
In this intent you can set the standard response which you want to use when a user answers with a phrase that your bot doesn't understand.
Besides the default fallback intent you can also add extra fallback intents. You could do this if you want to give a more helpful response to guide your user back on track. This also allows you to set a certain context so that the user doesn't go back to the start of the conversation when they enter something the bot doesn't understand. You can do this by clicking the Add follow-up intent option and selecting fallback from the dropdown.

Dialogflow - handling inputs with multiple intents

I'm designing a helpdesk chatbot in dialogflow and currently training it with existing data from my ticketing system. What is the best practice for handling inputs that contain multiple intents? Here is an example with the intents in bold:
"Hi, my name is John Doe and I'm a first year student. I want to know where to register for classes and also reset my enterprise password. Please help."
So is the solution to ask people to keep things simple up front? I think currently dialogflow will point the user to one of the intents above, but i'm not sure how it decides which intent to match with.
You will probably have one intent for each feature that your bot offers, i.e. RegisterClass, ResetPassword etc. In that case there is no good* way to handle the case where someone asks for two things at once, your users will have to limit themselves to one request at a time. You can however use a fallback intent to explain this at runtime. This intent would be triggered if a users utterances matches none of the other intents and could give the user a quick explanation like
"Sorry, I didn't get that. Please tell me what you would like to do,
e.g. 'register a class' or 'change my password'"
This would keep a natural conversation going and alleviate the need to "train" users specifically for your agent.
*You could of course add combined intents like RegisterClassAndChangePassword, but that would become very clumsy and most likely not work reliably. You could also try to parse the request in your backend, but then you would essentially circumvent Dialogflow's core feature.

Trying to create a follow-up intent to capture contact information

I want to create an intent for personal follow-up with anonymous visitors. I have created a "getfollowup" intent that triggers when visitor asks for escalation, speak to a manager, etc. I want to create yes/no follow-up intents and trigger a "getcontact" intent for "yes" answer. The getcontact intent is created to capture #sys.given-name and #sys.email for slot filling. I'm having trouble getting the two intents to connect. Here's an example of how I'd like the conversation to flow:
...
Visitor: I need to speak to a manager
[getfollowup intent triggered]
Response: Sorry I haven't been able to help. Would you like me to have someone reach out to you?
Visitor: Yes
[getfollowup-yes context]
[need to trigger getcontact intent here...it is this transition that I can't figure out]
Response: Ok. First may have your name?
Visitor: John
Response: Thanks, John. May I have your email address?
Vistor: john#example.com
Response: Thanks for the info. Someone will reach out to you shortly.
In general, you don't "trigger" an Intent. Intents capture what the user says, and not what you do with that.
So the approach in your case would that when the user says "yes", you simply prompt them for the information you want and set a Context indicating you want this information.
You can then create other Intents (such as your "getcontact" Intent) that take this as an Input Context and have the user providing the information you've prompted for.

Creating Follow Up intent in API.AI

I am trying to create a Chatbot through API.AI. Now my chatbot has a flow and it responds based on the users query. So I have created many Follow up Intents. But my follow up intents are not connecting. It is returning the same respinse for the initial question. Where did i go wrong?
Would help to see what your intent looks like. From what you're saying though, it may be that the previous question is not getting the answer its looking for so it will just continue asking it until it does. Check your entity value under action within your intent.
