Extract Entity from Trigger

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by

Hello,

 

I have a trigger for phrases such as "What's the weather"

 

I need to evaluate this trigger phrase to identify if it contains a City or Country entity

          if it does then it should set the associated variables

          if it doesn't then it will call an action to set a default location (meaning the user should never be asked explicitly for City and Country).

 

Has anyone found a way to do this?

    Hi ,  @machoufleur 

    As searched , it seems has no way to extract entity from trigger. If we want to extract the entity we need to use the "Ask a question" action in my understanding.

    And for the same case you can refer to :
    Solved: How to detect entities from trigger phrases - Power Platform Community (microsoft.com)

     

    Or you can also try to use the Dynamic Chaining feature if it can realize your need:

    Copilot Studio Dynamic Chaining and Generative Actions in Power Virtual Agents (youtube.com)

    Use Generative Actions in Microsoft Copilot Studio (preview) - Microsoft Copilot Studio | Microsoft Learn
