Hi @pudasainishushant. To help out, I’ll need more details about your domain, formaction, nlu data. Could you share them here?

Hey @pudasainishushant. Does it work if instead of providing the name as a one-word input you say something like ''Register my account as …?" I suspect the NLU model simply fails to classify this one-word input as a `register_account` intent and therefore the form fails. You could try to solve it by adding such one-word input examples to `register_account` intent or create a separate intent, for example `inform` where you could provide such inputs or even use a lookup table to match the names as it’s a difficult challenge for NLU models to properly extract such one-word inputs as entities since there are no surrounding words to learn the patterns from.
