Hello ,I use rasa create a bot an it can talk to me.My story.md is as follow

> ## ask\_normal3
> 
> - search\_normal
> - utter\_ok
> 
> ## ask\_greet
> 
> - greet -utter\_greet

when I input “/greet” it response "hello "，but when I continue to input “/search\_normal”，it has no response until I input "/restart’. So my problem is how can I start a new story when one is finished.

Hi @sdu-2044, you can use custom action to reset conversation

In `actions.py`:

```
from rasa_sdk.events import Restarted
class ActionRestarted(Action):
    def name(self):
        return "action_chat_restart"

    def run(self, dispatcher, tracker, domain):
        return [Restarted()]

```

In `domain.yml`:

```
actions:
  - action_chat_restart

```

In `stories.md`

```
## path 1
* happy_greet
  - utter_happy_greet
  - action_chat_restart
  
## path 2
* unhappy_greet
  - utter_unhappy_greet
  - action_chat_restart
```

Thanks for your reply.This solution works well,but I think rasa provides action\_restart by default,you don’t need to write a custom action to restart the conversation yourself.And the restart action will reset all trackers and slot at the same time which sometime I don’t want to.So any other solutions?

You should definitely have more than two stories and they should be reflective of actual conversations someone might have with your bot. Check out [Stories](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/core/stories/)
