store initial question ?

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by 2

Hi!
I want to use the initial question an user asked in the rest of the path. So when a topic is triggered i want to use the question they asked as a variable, this must be possible isnt it?

I know about the failed trigger option. But i want to get the question asked when there is a succesfull match with a topic. 

The reason why i want this is, is because i want to use Entities as a way to search for sub-topics within the question asked. 

So for example, a person askes about quizzes within our chatbot, it triggers a topic quizzes, but then i want to run it through an entity so check of several sub-topics, like quiz statistics of new quiz questions etc. 
I dont want the person to have to repeat the question because its not very user friendly... (see attachment)  

Hopefully someone can help me with this!

    thanks but i want to use the first response of line a person said which triggered the topic... so not ask them again what they said so i can store it... but the initial phrase.. do you think that is possible too?

    Hi @RRsteendijk ,

     

    You can set any response as a variable and call it whenever you need.

    See example attached:
