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.

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
i just started on a project in DialogFlow and i was wondering is it possible to link my dialogflow to a specific desktop application? And if possible, what is the solution?
For example:
By saying "launch app", it will open up the desktop application "app"
While this is certainly something that Dialogflow's APIs can help with - this isn't a feature provided by Dialogflow itself. Dialogflow's NLP runs in the cloud - there is nothing local that it can "do".
However, you can create a launcher app that does this sort of thing by opening the microphone and sending either the stream or a speech-to-text version to Dialogflow through the Detect Intent API. Dialogflow can determine an Intent that would handle this and pass that information back to your launcher, and your launcher can then locate the app and start it.
I'm not sure how practical this would be, however. Microsoft already has this feature built-in with Cortana, and Google is building the Assistant into ChromeOS which will do this as well. While I'm not aware of Apple doing this, I may just have missed an announcement that Siri does this as well. And if there isn't someone who is doing this for Linux using some local speech-to-text libraries, it sounds like the perfect opportunity to do so.
You may try and use different Dialogflow clients available on their GitHub page. Java Client 2 may be helpful to start your work. However, you will be required to write your own UI code and have to consume Dialogflow API.
I'm using Dialogflow to interact with my users (they can ask questions, ask to receive reports etc...) and I would like to launch an Android application when they invoke one the intents I created, is there a way to that?
Short answer: Not really.
Longer answer: While you can't have one of your Actions trigger any Android Intent directly, you do have a few options to strongly suggest to a user that they do so. For example:
You can use something like Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to trigger a notification/event.
If you're relying on the screen of the Android device, you can send a card that includes a URL, and that URL can deep link into your application if you've configured it.
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
