- 5. @dothewww Intents 5 An intent isthe goal or purpose of the user's input. Adding examples to intents helps your virtual assistant understand different ways in which people would say them. Provide at least five examples for each intent.
- 6. @dothewww Content Catalog 6 Get startedfaster by adding existing intents from the content catalog. These intents are trained on common questions that users may ask.
- 7. @dothewww Entities 7 An entity isa portion of the user's input that you can use to provide a different response to a particular intent. Adding values and synonyms to entities helps your virtual assistant learn and understand important details that your users mention.
- 8. @dothewww System Entities System entitiesare common entities created by IBM that could be used across any use case. They are ready to use as soon as you add them.
- 9. @dothewww Dialog 9 A dialog usesintents, entities, and context from your application to define a response to each user's input. Creating a dialog defines how your virtual assistant will respond to what your users are saying.
- 10. @dothewww Dialog 10 Dialog is processedby the service from the first node in the tree to the last. If the service finds a condition that is met, it triggers that node. It then moves along the triggered node to check the user input against any child node conditions.
- 11. @dothewww Slots 11 Add slots toa dialog node to gather multiple pieces of information from a user within that node. Slots collect information at the users' pace. Details the user provides upfront are saved, and the service asks only for the details they do not.
