Hi, I’m trying to implement a custom connector for our internal messenger. As per the Custom Connectors Guide, I created a python script in my application directory chatbotchannel.py and implemented InputChannel class. #filename : chatbotchannel.py class ChatBot(InputChannel): @classmethod def name(cls): return "chatbot" Also added below entry in the credentials.yml file in the app directory (this dir is created using rasa init) # filename : credentials.yml # This file contains the credentials for the voice & chat platforms # which your bot is using. # https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/user-guide/messaging-and-voice-channels/ rest: # # you don't need to provide anything here - this channel doesn't # # require any credentials #entry for custom channel chatbotchannel.ChatBot: I get below error when I start the server using rasa run command.
