Rasa Open Source

importing FormAction from Rasa Core sdk throws an error.

from rasa_core_sdk.forms import FormAction

Gives me the error stack of:

Traceback (most recent call last):

NotImplementedError

Why is it Raising this NotImplementedError if no where in my code I have created an instance of this class ?

How are you using it, if you’ve imported it?

3

I am running

make run-actions

From the Makefile. If that import is at the top of the file, that error is thrown.

It throws the error before I even used it like

class CustomAction(FormAction):
5

can you post your actions.py file?

I solved the problem by manually pasting the FormAction Class and all FormFields into my actual actions.py file.

can you share how you did it if possible then share the code of class “FormAction”
