Problems building a custom UI using the API

Rasa Open Source
1

I’m trying to build a custom UI around Rasa, but am finding there’s not documentation around getting the conversation history for a conversation_id.

Looking at Rasa Open Source Documentation, it seems like you can only get the latest message, and there’s no way to get the history for a particular conversation.

Is the recommended approach to store the conversation history in your own separate database? Or is there something I’m missing?

@fandy, you can use Rasa X, its a tool that will help you a lot in your assistant’s development.

Sorry for not being clear. I’d like to use Rasa X as the dashboard for development, but for the user’s frontend use a custom UI.

Hi @fandy. I am not 100% sure what you are looking for, but you can use a custom tracker store to store the conversation history (for example SQL, Redis or Mongo). You can find more info on how you can configure it here.
