Building a chatbot that doesn't respond to the user

[Gabriella Warren-Smith]

Hello,

I'm aiming to program a chatbot on Dialogflow so that it runs through a series of questions without responding to user responses.

Is there anyway to programme it using the intents (or fulfilment) so that it runs through a pre-programmed set of questions without responding to the user's input? It seems to only respond if it recognises the text from the training intents.

Thank you!

Set up a page with a number of required parameters (perhaps Answer1, Answer2, and Answer3).

Each of those parameters will need an entity type (maybe @sys.any or @sys.date or some custom entity type).

Each parameter also has "Initial prompt fulfillment" where you define the question to elicit that particular answer.

On that page, drop a conditional route on $page.params.status=FINAL for when all of the questions are answered and voila!

Does that help?
