Adding an output

Output is a virtual assistant's response message for a user that appears in the text, buttons, images, and other ways. Any unit of text for displaying to the user on the screen must be composed.

You can see all outputs in the training view Outputs. Each output has its identifier. In this view, you can easily browse data and change output values. All outputs can be exported to one .json or .xlsx file and imported into the same formats.

There are three ways to add outputs:

  1. Create them in the view Outputs;
  2. Create them in the training view Scenario;
  3. List them in an Excel table and import them into the view Outputs.

Adding a new output in the view Outputs

  2. To add a new output, click Add. The new output adding window appears on the right side of the screen.
  3. In the Output value field, write down the output text that you want to display to the user.
  4. Click Save and close. The new output with an identifier appears in the list of outputs.
  5. For the changes to take effect, click the Publish button in the upper-right corner of the view.
