I genuinely thought this was going to be way easier than it is. I just want copilot to check my calendar for the week and search for a a meeting based on my prompt however this is seeming impossible as the bot cant interpret from the text the date and time.

Anyone here ever attempted to do something similar? If so how do you go around this problem of fetching the date?

I'm using just action directly, no topic or anything since i wanted copilot to interpret the message from the user but not sure if that's possible

Hi there this has to be with Entities and the way they work... btw there is a bug when sometimes it does not understand the input... anyway a work around, create a topic

kind: AdaptiveDialog
modelDescription: Execute this topic to gather information about start and end date used in an acction
beginDialog:
  kind: OnRecognizedIntent
  id: main
  intent: {}
  actions:
    - kind: Question
      id: question_yivF3l
      interruptionPolicy:
        allowInterruption: true

      variable: init:Global.Date1
      prompt: Please select the starting date
      entity: DateTimePrebuiltEntity

    - kind: Question
      id: question_Cp3XMi
      interruptionPolicy:
        allowInterruption: true

      variable: init:Global.Date2
      prompt: Please select the end date
      entity: DateTimePrebuiltEntity

inputType: {}
outputType: {}

then configure in your action, go to Inputs and change Start and End Date as bellow
