I have a slot reminder_subject. This slot accept any random text as user input. I want bot to treat this user message as a value. Is there any way to define type for this slot as Free text in domain.yml. I have read FormAction but not getting clarity how to implement this use case My story for this looks like this - set_reminder utter_what_reminder_for set_reminder{“reminder_subject”: “movie with family”} slot{“reminder_subject”: “movie with family”} utter_ask_time time_info{“time”: “2018-09-24T16:00:00.000Z”, “number”: 4.0} slot{“number”: 4.0} slot{“time”: “2018-09-24T16:00:00.000Z”} action_set_reminder User and bot conversation would look like this - User: Set reminder Bot: What is the reminder for? User: movie with family Bot: When you want to be reminded? User: tomorrow at 5 pm

hi @akelad would you be able to help advise on my issue as well? thanks!

Hi, I am also facing the same isse while writing the custom action based on user input. The flow is breaking.

@neslieang could you post the debug logs of your conversation where this happens?

hi @r4sn4 ! did you find a good solution for your issue of free-text? i am facing a similar issue and the core expects my free text to belong in an intent. Please share your experience.Thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

hi @akelad …what if I have to ask the following questions , all of them are free text 1)what is the name of the story 2)what is the name of the project 3)what is the name of the lead I want to capture these free text and send to one single action where API call is performed on these 3. How to capture them.

Hi Is this issue fixed by new feature that allow free or random text to be capture in slot without specifying intent. I tried to implement with some intent having specific prefix but it again requires entire example w/ prefix. Why can’t it consider some prefix or suffix word as identifier or indicator for specific intent w/ some random or free text? e.g. entities -generic_query and intent generic_query_inform: examples | query=[ xxxxxx ] ( generic_query ) ? so when bot utter (utter_ask_generic_query) either through form slot then with above example when i enter below text with some prefix (i.e. here query=) ideally classify it to <generic_query_inform> intent but it does not. query=who is the CEO of Apple? any idea, whether this feature or bug fix still in progress or there is any workaround like some regEx w/ or w/o prefix/suffix can help to classify free or random text to some intent and capture that into slot.

This can be achieved in forms by using code snippet for example: forms: form_name: required_slots: name: type: from_text if you still face issue let me know
