Here is my docker-compose file, rasa x is working fine, but I don’t know where to enable rest so I can develop my own client.

Hi @SimonCarr! Why do you want to enable a rest endpoint? Can you elaborate a bit more on what you mean by develop your own client?

Hi @tyd Rasa X provides a UI for development and testing, but unless your just messing around, then at somepoint you will want to deploy the chatbot into production for users to use. That requires a client, possably integrated into an existing web site. That client needs to talk to RASA throug the API. The RASA web sites explains how to start the API by using the switches -c --rest but in the docker compose example it provides no explanation of how to enable the rest interface is provided.

@SimonCarr Rasa X is a production ready setup. If you deploy Rasa X, load your assistant in using Integrated Version Control, and then connect to an external channel (e.g. your own website or rest interface).
