Managing the collection multiple slots from an utterance

[Afamefuna_Anigbo]

Hello guys,

I have a somewhat trivial question.

I’m trying to develop an intent that collects 3 slots that are compulsory.

Is this possible? If so? How can I achieve this please?

Looking forward to positive responses soonest!

Regards,

You can use states for this and save each slot in session variables.

Keep previous input state after using validation and this.ask()

If anybody is interested in the solution, here is mine if(this.$inputs.da.value != undefined) { this.$session.$data.da = this.$inputs.da; } else if(this.$session.$data.da != undefined) { this.$inputs.da = this.$session.$data.da; } If user inputs something, I save it in a session var. Next time the app enters inside the intent, I check it again. If user had said something else for that input, I’ll overwrite the session var, else I’ll populate the input value with the las…
