we can call or trigger another intent from active intent like below

if we have A intent and B intent

Now user is in A intent our requirement is trigger B intent with in this A intent

Below are example the actions and slots of A and B

just return in A action like below :

def submit( self, dispatcher: CollectingDispatcher, tracker: Tracker, domain: Dict[Text, Any]) -\>List[Dict]:  
intent\_name=tracker.latest\_message.get(“intent”, {}).get(“name”) if intent\_name ==“B” return [SlotSet(‘slot\_name’, None), FollowupAction(‘followup action name’)]

Replace your slot set name and follow up action name in return statement ex: return [SlotSet(‘utter\_slots\_B"’, None), FollowupAction(‘B\_action’)]
