Chatbot to check live flight status

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 186

Dear Community Member,

 

I am creating a chatbot, which will provide live flight status by asking for flight numbers and return an adaptive card display the flight status.

 

So far, I am able to capture user's response (flight number) and pass it on to the adaptive card as a variable. 

 

I am just confused about the next step.

 

Which flight website provides API that I can connect the ChatBot to pull down the latest information?

 

Thanks!

    Hi @HenryJammes 

     

    Thanks for the information.

     

    I have successfully built a bot and learned a lot during the demo.

     

    I also created a Youtube tutorial and written a blog.

    I hope it will help others too.

    Hi @nhtkid,

     

    I haven't tried it, but Aviationstack is a 3rd-party connector available in Power Automate to retrieve flight information: Aviationstack (Independent Publisher) - Connectors | Microsoft Learn.

     

    You could call that API by calling a Cloud Flow from your PVA chatbot: Use Power Automate flows in Power Virtual Agents - Power Virtual Agents | Microsoft Learn

     

    Aviationstack requires an API Access Key, as documented here: API Documentation - aviationstack
