I am beginner in rasa chatbot things. I am following Rasa for Beginners Udemy [course](https://www.udemy.com/course/rasa-for-beginners/) The course is outdated, so I am trying my best to update things, I am stuck at **Forms**

After watching some latest Forms tutorials in Rasa Youtube official [channel](https://youtu.be/U3an88fjFRc) & following [RasaHQ/rasa/examples/formbot](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/tree/main/examples/formbot) github example, I was able to create Form with slots mapping 🌈

I even learnt how to activate & deactivate forms from this [migration doc](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/blob/e2759589e308de1120364035256d6169776c8c55/docs/docs/forms.mdx#activating-a-form)

But my setup its not working 🙁, let me show problems below (I was running rasa in interactive mode, to debug things):

I did it! I had 1 typo in form

```auto
    exercise:
    - type: from_entity
      entity: email <- this should be exercise, silly me :P

```

and I rewrote Stories & rules, also included out\_of\_scope handling

**rules.yml**

```auto
version: "2.0"

rules:
- rule: Activate health_form
  steps:
  - intent: affirm
  - action: health_form
  - active_loop: health_form

- rule: Submit health_form
  condition:
  - active_loop: health_form
  steps:
  - action: health_form
  - active_loop: null
  - action: utter_slots_value
  - action: action_restart

```

**stories.yml**

```auto
version: "2.0"

stories:

- story: Greet user back
  steps:
  - intent: greet
  - action: utter_greet

- story: Thank you, end and reset
  steps:
  - intent: thankyou
  - action: utter_no_worries
  - action: utter_goodbye
  - action: action_restart

- story: No Form
  steps:
  - intent: greet
  - action: utter_greet
  - intent: deny
  - action: utter_no_worries
  - action: utter_goodbye
  - action: action_restart

- story: Sad Path 1 - Retry
  steps:
  - intent: affirm
  - action: health_form
  - active_loop: health_form
  - intent: out_of_scope
  - action: utter_ask_continue
  - intent: affirm
  - action: health_form
  - active_loop: null
  - action: utter_slots_value
  - action: action_restart

- story: Sad Path 2 - Stop
  steps:
  - intent: affirm
  - action: health_form
  - active_loop: health_form
  - intent: out_of_scope
  - action: utter_ask_continue
  - intent: deny
  - action: action_deactivate_loop
  - active_loop: null
  - action: utter_no_worries
  - action: utter_goodbye
  - action: action_restart

```

Just 1 thing is left, I need to skip exercise slot if confirm\_exercise is false… searching for examples and old posts in this forum. If someone bump into this thread, please feel free to add anything you know 🙂

I was able to finally complete this, I added below stuff in actions.py after reading [docs](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/forms#advanced-usage), referring this [example](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/blob/main/examples/formbot) & thanks to @marcos.allysson for this [answer](http://forum.rasa.com/t/skip-form-slot-based-on-previous-slot-result/37744/2)

```python
from typing import Text, List

from rasa_sdk import Tracker, FormValidationAction
from rasa_sdk.executor import CollectingDispatcher
from rasa_sdk.types import DomainDict

class ValidateHealthForm(FormValidationAction):

  def name(self) -> Text:
      return "validate_health_form"

  async def required_slots(
    self,
    slots_mapped_in_domain: List[Text],
    dispatcher: "CollectingDispatcher",
    tracker: "Tracker",
    domain: "DomainDict"
  ) -> List[Text]:
    if tracker.get_slot("confirm_exercise") == True:
      return ["confirm_exercise", "exercise", "sleep", "diet", "stress", "goal"]
    else:
      return ["confirm_exercise", "sleep", "diet", "stress", "goal"]

```

after this I uncommented 2 lines in **endpoints.yml** most likely this is for telling rasa where to send requests for checking custom actions. (correct me if i am wrong)

```python
action_endpoint:
 url: "http://localhost:5055/webhook"

```

finally in **domain.yml** file I added below stuff just before form definition.

```yml
actions:
- validate_health_form

```
