Whenever the system receives a trigger it cannot match the Unknown will be triggered. You can use this for fallback scenarios.     Our NLP engine learns based on the examples you provide for each intent. If there are specific queries the NLP should not match, you can add these as examples to the Uknown intent. This is especially useful in delicate situations like customer support. Unknown triggers can be placed within the context of a flow. That way you can easily differentiate the reply actions based on the context of a flow. Note that the unknown is also triggered when a user for example shares an image and you do not have a flow handling this specific situation.

A basic form of reply that translates into spoken word or text bubbles, depending on the channel. String Templates String templates are variables that can be used within Any text trigger. They can be used also in text replies, titles and subtitles of a card and in button labels. For example:     Param selection Multiple params render as a list within string templates. You can select the elements that will be rendered. For example to access the last element of the list use   param.last.match :   First element of the list can be accessed by   param.first.match   or   param.0.match . It also works with   value :   param.first.value ,   param.last.value ,   param.*any_digit*.value . Within text replies you can use variables that are matched by the AI. If you trained the AI to match entities they can be used with a template syntax. For example if you trained the AI with a entity called   country, you will be able use it like so: I am going to check the weather for {{country}} This would result in a response like: I am going to check the weather for France Entity matches could be fuzzy and by default templates print the   value   of a matched parameter. You can also access the match by using   {{param.match}} Text variants It's also possible to send different replies to make your dialog less repetitive

Resetting a flow will drop any conversational context and parameters. Everything Reset all flows, parameters, and context. Basically, clear the memory or your bot. Unexpected behaviour: Resetting all context at the wrong place will prevent the AI engine to find matches. Make sure to use it wisely All parameters Only reset the parameters of your bot. All the collected values will be reset. The context, however, will be remembered as the conversation flow. Specific parameters This will reset only specific parameters within your flow. Use this for example when you want to replace parameters with new values.

Resolve your conversations automatically without having to archive them manually. The resolve action works like the   handover   but instead of moving a conversation into a handover state, it resolves it. Conversation can be resolved with: Reason   (fixed): bot, agent Resolution   (free text): ‘ABC’, ‘spam’ etc   Note: Both the reason and resolution can be used for analytics purposes. Automatic resolves Instead of adding a resolve action inside a flow, you can also resolve all conversations that are older than a certain date or remove all data that was last updated before a certain date. Note: To enable this feature within your project settings you'll have to upgrade to an enterprise plan. You can read more about automatic resolves   here.
