Hi @yubiaohyb , Rasa slots keep the value saved into them, so to enter value in the same slot again, You can add one slot resetting action in the beginning or at the end of the story flow so that whenever the flow is invoked you will have the required slot empty as the action would reset the slot for you to save new value. ```auto story: RESET SLOT - action: action_reset_required_slot . Your rest of the story goes here . . OR Add the reset action here at the end ``` ---

Action server in Rasa is Python Based, have you created some sort of wrapper over this server? ---

> [@anoopshrma](#): > > Based no, i use a java application as action server, that would simplify my work. ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex013/uploads/rasa/original/3X/8/6/86e0bbcb752bf4af6bd01121eccebab6134b920f.png) i think i should code the logic in the “action\_query\_store\_by\_name\_submit” section. ---

If you’re not going to use python then you’ll need to write the [rasa-sdk](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa-sdk/tree/365376f0e6ff5932c4271ac292696e4cf9c5b76e/rasa_sdk) python functions in Java. ---
