Multiple Entity Check

Multiple Entity Check

Intro

This block that checks if the user response with multiple entities/answers in one-sentence. If entities are missing, the blocks keeps asking for these remaining entities until all entities are accounted for.

You can configure which question the bot asks if the entity is missing. Please make sure you've trained entities, and your entities are added to your intent (else it won't show in the specific intent flow).

Example, the bot wants to know:

  • Departure time

  • Departure location

  • Arrival location.

You set these (3) entities in the block (with a max of 10)

Example 1: 

User response with: "I would like to book a flight from Denver to Amsterdam, tomorrow at 12:00"

  • This example, the block detects all entities and continues.

Example 2: 

User response with: "I would like to book a flight from Denver"

  • In this example, the block replies "please tell me the arrival location"

  • and continues to ask "please tell me the departure time" 

  • if the block detects all entities, it continues 

Example 3: 

User response with: "I would like to book a flight from Denver tomorrow at 12:00"

  • in this example the block replies with "please tell me the arrival location"

  • if the block detects all entities, it continues 


*this block can't be used in the welcome intent
