hi all, I am using Rasa 2.8.15. I have a Form and using action.py to validate slots. For one of them, if intent == 'affirm', I want to trigger a FollowupAction() event. However because it is a slot validation method the returned object needs to be defined as a dictionary… how can I do it? def validate_formslot(self, slot_value: Text, dispatcher: CollectingDispatcher, tracker: Tracker, domain: DomainDict) -> Dict[Text, Any]: if tracker.latest_message['intent'].get('name') == 'affirm': return {"formslot": slot_value, [FollowupAction(action_name)]} This does not work…

[image] userRasa03: I think I have not been very clear, apologies. No worries :slight_smile: [image] userRasa03: Your suggestion above will make the bot say 'Write your action here'in case the "followup" slot has a value of 'action_test'… but no custom action () gets executed if I understand correctly? The bot would then ask the user to fill the next domain_slot , instead of reacting to user response to the Action, right? All correct! [image] userRasa03: I dont understand how to execute the action from the required_slots()? What’s not clear about it? You write your action in the if block instead of separately. For example: def required_slots(self, domain_slots, dispatcher, tracker, domain): if tracker.slots.get('followup') == 'action_get_weather': location = tracker.get_slot('location') weather_info = getWeather(location) temperature = weather_info['temperature'] dispatcher.utter_message(f'The temperature is {temperature} degrees in {location}.'). return domain_slots Just make sure to set the slot to None again in the next validation method :slight_smile: Otherwise this will be executed every time. Or, alternatively, you can do something like this (next_slot_name is the slot that will be filled next, and you’re checking it has not been filled): if tracker.slots.get('followup') == followup_action_name and tracker.slots.get(next_slot_name) is None:

Is it possible to trigger event FollowupAction() from a Form validation method?
