Start form right away without chitchat first

Rasa Open Source

I’d like to start a bot chat right away in a form, without any questions upfront. I think that doesn’t allow me to discover the intent first. How do I design the rule that activates the form policy in that case? How do I make sure Rasa understands that the first interaction from the user is (meant to be) filling the first slot?

Thanks for your thoughts!

How about adding a rule a rule that triggers the form when the session is started? See below:

- rule: Start form on session start
  steps:
  - action: action_session_start
  - active_loop: my_form

Hi Felicia,

That is a nice plan. I’ll try that! Thanks for your suggestion.
