I want to upload images and reuse them in a conversation, i.e. the bot must be aware of the image name. How would I do that without sending a text message and triggering a bot response? Should I use a custom Tracker event, should I use a slot event that I inject, or should I send a user message without text and only with metadata? Any ideas?
