RASA Attachments

Hi All, In my use case I have to send an attachment to an API. Lets take example Bot : Do you have template User : Yes Bot : Please provide a template User: Upload the template of a file. After this bot has to perform an action to perform a POST request sending the attachment. Can anyone help how to handle this . I am not able to understand how rasa_nlu is going to treat this attachment. Thanks,

Send files to bot

You can put the files in S3 or NFS like that and send the link/bool to rasa core that perceives that it has received a file. another option would be to store the byte stream in the tracker itself though I am not sure it is a good idea. All you need is some sort of indicator that you provide to the bot that you have received a file, unless you want the NLU to parse the file itself for information but that also you should do with a different API, bot should process relevant natural text or slots…

Please refer it. Hope it helps @Ayantika1 You can mark it as answer if you feel this helps.
