Hi. This is basically what I want to do.

Path1

- Bot: Hi, would you like to fill out this form?
- User: Yes
- Bot: Thanks. Do you use X? **form action triggered**

Path2

- Bot: Hi, would you like to fill out this form?
- User: no
- Bot: Sure, thanks. **form action not triggered**
- User: Yes
- Bot: Okay. Bye **form not action triggered despite affirmation yes**

From the docs, I understand that `form action` can be triggered base on intent. It wouldn’t work if I trigger the `form_action` on just on an affirmation- because after form action is complete I wouldn’t want an affirmation to trigger a `form action`. Ideally, I’d want to trigger the form action if an affirmative intent is got after an action ("Hi, would you like to fill out this form? ").

Any suggestions on how this can be done?
