Firebase functions integration and google sign in

[Vladimir Korukov]

Hello,

Dialogflow cx seems more robust than the previous version and I'm excited to start using it. I was wondering what the webhook support for it looks like.

Can we use the firebase functions code that worked with the old dialogflow version? The code imported 'actions-on-google' npm module and used that library to handle intents, is that module compatible with webhooks in dialogflow cx?

One thing that library provided was google sign in - so that the webhook handler knew which user was making the request from actions on Google. Can dialogflow cx webhook also tell me the id of the user somehow?

Thanks,

Vladimir

Hi Vladimir, 

Dialogflow Essentials fulfillment libraries are not compatible with Dialogflow CX – the webhook format in Dialogflow CX is different.

For more details, please check the following documentation:

• https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/cx/docs/concept/webhook
• https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/cx/docs/reference/rpc/google.cloud.dialogflow.cx.v3beta1#webhookrequest
• https://cloud.google.com/dialogflow/cx/docs/reference/rpc/google.cloud.dialogflow.cx.v3beta1#webhookresponse

The API looks easy enough to implement without a library.

However I didn't see any fields in the request for any sort of user ID. I would like my webhook to know which user it's talking to, how would I accomplish that with this API? For example in the es fulfilment library there was an account id field in the request which I could use to do user-specific logic.

Hi Vladimir, 

When you send a detectIntent request, you can use the QueryParameters.payload field to pass custom data to your webhook. In the WebhookRequest, you will see this data in the payload field.

I see, so whoever's between the end user and dialogflow CX is responsible for this, which makes sense. In my case that thing in the middle is Actions on Google. Is there an integration between Dialogflow CX and Actions on Google, or do I have to manually send HTTP requests between the two?

Hi Vladimir, 

For Actions on Google, you can consider using Actions Builder that has conceptual similarities with Dialogflow CX but doesn't require usage of any Dialogflow editions. See more details here. Dialogflow CX doesn't have integration with Actions on Google.
