Is there any way I can pass a value to an intent using toIntent method as an argument? Currently we can jump to an intent using return this.toIntent('intent_name'), but if I want to send some values along, how would I do it?
I read state handling but did not understand purely. Is there any complete documentation with code sample abut how to use it in JOVO available yet?
We typically recommend to use the this.$data object if the data is only needed for the current request:

This should work, though:
