Hi everybody, I have a question, maybe somebody already has done something similar and knows if it is possible. For example, i have a conversation, which is a dialogue between user and bot, maybe including some actions, and i extract part of this dialogue from the tracker as list of events. Now I want to restart the current conversation and simulate it from this list of events, kind of replay all these events, is it possible? Until now i managed to change the tracker, save events but i don’t see how to push these events to the frontend. Any help would be appreciated! ---

Are you using custom actions or the HTTP API? In case of the HTTPI API: Add a `restart` event as first item to your event list, and then append all the old events of you trackers and send this of events to [HTTP API](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/api/http-api/#tag/Tracker/paths/~1conversations~1%7Bconversation_id%7D~1tracker~1events/post) In case of custom actions: `return [Restarted()] + tracker.events` ---

Thank you, Tobias! I will try it! ---

The offered solution is working fine. But still I have some issues. If I return some action which should trigger another action (according to the mapping policy), it doesn’t work - the returned action doesn’t trigger anything. Is there an issue with the mapping policy in such a case? Thank you for the help! ---

The mappingpolicy makes that certain intents trigger certain actions. It doesn’t let you trigger actions with actions. You could use a `FollowUp` event for that ([Events](https://rasa.com/docs/rasa/api/events/#force-a-followup-action)). Note that you should import the events from the `rasa.sdk.events` and not from `rasa.core` ---

Sorry, i was not clear enough in my previous post. Let me make an example: in my domain.yml I have > ``` > intents: > - ask_if_bot: > triggers: action_bot_answer > - hello > - bye > > ``` so if in some run function from actions.py i return > return [Restarted(), UserUttered(“are you a bot?”)] the action “action\_bot\_answer” doesn’t get triggered, as if it does when i write the same in the chat. So in this case the mapping policy doesn’t jump in. ---

Mhm, I think the idea is to use `FollowupActions` here. Also if you return an event `UserUttered(“are you a bot?”)` this does not trigger another NLU prediction since the event is basically the result of an NLU prediction. But what should work would be `UserUttered(“are you a bot?”, {"intent": {"name": "ask_if_bot"}})`
