Open a link directly as a response

Hello everyone,
I was trying to add a URL as a button payload in custom actions.But I am getting a bad URL host error.

The code is :
buttons = [{“title”: “Click here”, “payload”:“Full Body Aerobic Workout Special 90min - YouTube”}] dispatcher.utter_message(“Buttons:\n”,buttons)

Any help would be appreciated

Hi @ramya. As far as I am aware, you can’t use a url in a button payload; however, you can use buttons in the bot response text. See these examples:

• pass the button payload to rasa · Issue #79 · scalableminds/chatroom · GitHub
• https://github.com/RasaHQ/carbon-assistant/blob/8f2eee6292e9d45e66684f8e3eaeac0c599244a5/actions.py#L25
