I am trying to use the form bot example given in RASA tutorial for my own bot. However, the bot is not able to extract some of the entities. For example, It is working fine for request\_car, num\_people, car\_type etc but after giving a reply for the source, the bot is not responding properly.

Terminal Conversation with the bot

Hi @avnish_002 - are you sure that the entity is being recognized by your NLU model?

You can check this by running `rasa shell --debug` and checking the output when you talk to the bot. Alternatively, for a place name, you could do a `from_text` slot mapping for the location and use an API to validate that it’s a valid place name. Since there is no context, just a single word, it’s tricky for the NER model to know that it’s a place name. So that’s my guess of what’s going wrong.
