What’s the preferred way to deploy to Rasa X with a custom connector? I have a Facebook Messenger bot that handles incoming images from users. When I was testing locally I manipulated Rasa’s facebook.py file to handle incoming images and I have no issues. Now I’m looking to deploy the bot to a server and I’m unsure how to go about deploying my bot with this custom connector. I don’t have a ton of experience with deployment tasks so any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi @Tobias_Wochinger , Thanks for the response! I worked at this for a couple days and think I understand the docker-compose deployment process a little better now. I was able to setup the custom connector on my EC2 instance with the following steps. Do these appear correct? Or is there a better way to go about accomplishing this? Install Rasa X curl -sSL -o install.sh https://storage.googleapis.com/rasa-x-releases/0.29.1/install.sh bash ./install.sh Create Connectors Directory Once Rasa X is installed create a module within /etc/rasa to store the custom connection code. cd /etc/rasa mkdir connectors touch connectors/__init__.py touch connectors/custom_facebook.py nano connectors/custom_facebook.py Create docker-compose.override.yml cd /etc/rasa touch docker-compse.override.yml nano docker-compose.override.yml Within docker-compose.override.yml I’m pointing to the connectors module created above. version: '3.4' services: rasa-production: volumes: - ./connectors:/app/connectors rasa-worker: volumes: - ./connectors:/app/connectors Update credentials.yml Finally I’m adding the following to credentials.yml to allow my custom connector to be verified by Facebook. connectors.custom_facebook.FacebookInput: verify: secret: page-access-token: Done! Start Rasa-X and verify /webooks/custom_facebook/webhook through Facebook.

@Tobias_Wochinger On the Rasa X conversations tab, do all conversations by different Users with the custom channel (Facebook/Alexa) appear in different tabs or one single tab asking for Issue #45839
