May I know if you have run “ **rasa run actions** ” on a separate terminal?

To run “rasa run actions” you need to “ **pip install rasa-sdk** ”

Could you give screenshot of your whole action file and also the method latest\_message.text. I am not that skilled with rasa also but to access the latest message let’s say data={…} contains the tracker json readings, You could access the latest message with **data[“tracker”][“latest\_message”][“text”]**

Also, you can run “ **rasa run actions -vv** ” to enter debug mode, then you can post your debug log here for us to view.

you can use

tracker.latest\_message[“text”] instead of tracker.latest\_message.text[“text”] I tried this and it works fine
