I’m trying to make a menu based chatbot, wherein user just has to enter 1/2/3/4 numbers to choose from options instead of typing the full option name. Most of the chatbots on whatsapp are number based menu bots. Is this possible in Rasa? Any help is appreciated . Thanks

Did you find any solution for this ? @bamwani

Hi @bamwani and @salman01z ! You can use a set of Rasa features to achieve that. See if the following helps you. First you must create an intent that will receive the numbers/answers. Regex may help to identify it. Then, if you choose to display buttons, set this intent as payload for each option. On each story, use slots to branch the flow, like: slot{“option” : “1”} utter_option_1 Hope it helps!

Thanks @GeovanaRamos . I can’t use buttons but using regex and branching stories based upon slot values solves my problem

is it resolved, please let me know how it could be

hey Geovana , can we have a super simple code for this ? like choosing ‘1’ may show some text ‘abc’ and choosing ‘2’ show some text ‘xyz’ would be grateful

hey Salman how did you solve this ? , can you share for stories and domain & actions.py files etc

Hey guys, how are you? Someone has solved the problem. How? Thanks.

it’s like you can give custom value to the entity and you want to give different stories for each option So you can achieve this

Hi! For example: Menu Info Enterprise Request Turn List People User: 1 -> Call Api - Info Enterprise User 2 -> Sub menu of items 3 Get turn Delete turn Update Turn In each option list new options with apis delivery. And since it is for WhatApp, the best option is a menu with numbers. my problem is that it does not recognize the numbers. So, I don’t know which option is selected by the user. Once selected, I do the option that says. That is, delete, update, etc. Thanks

you use the ducking to extract the numbers @lcaraves check out here
