I was working with wit.ai today. I was using the node-wit module. But the responses I was acting were very weird.
When I used the node-wit module. I got the response as -
{
"msg_id": "0f4rOWRXQMIhVuf5i",
"_text": "what is your name",
"entities": {
"intent": [{
"confidence": 0.9425254893432,
"value": "get_name"
}]
}
}
Whereas when i used the cURL command to get the response the response was very different.
{
"msg_id": "0KJdIPedYbYwWOgOL",
"_text": "what do you do",
"entities": {
"intent": [{
"confidence": 0.97713342030998,
"value": "get_job"
}]
}
}
Can anyone tell why this is happening or if I am implementing the function wrong?
Are you using the same service, there are two services, one for conversations/stories and other for messages.
if that is not the reason try to check the context and take a look on the log section inside wit.ai web app

I created a very simple cloud function in IBM, that I try to call via Watson assistant. When I call it the error "Direct CloudFunctions call was not successful. Http response code is [401]" appears.
Underneath is the code I am using. "prodname" is taken from the user and sent to the function to get an answer. The function is working fine when I invoke it. I get the ID and password from https://cloud.ibm.com/openwhisk/learn/api-key.
{
"context": {
"credentials": {
"user": "userID",
"password": "password"
}
},
"output": {
"text": {
"values": [
"$answer"
]
}
},
"actions": [
{
"name": "arllambi%2540gmail.com_Only/Watson/MovieBot",
"type": "cloud_function",
"parameters": {
"prodname": "$prodname"
},
"result_variable": "answer",
"credentials": "$credentials"
}
]
}
Is it possible that there is some problem with the credentials?
Thanks in advance for any help.
****** reEDIT ******
As suggested by data_henrik I provide futher info. The function I am calling is the following, a very simple echo function:
function main(msg){
return {answer: "You said " +msg.prodname};
}
I changed the cloud_function to web_action, web_action works fine via postman:
{
"output": {
"text": {
"values": [
"$answer"
]
}
},
"actions": [
{
"name": "arllambi#gmail.com_Only/Watson/MovieBot.json",
"type": "web_action",
"parameters": {
"prodname": "<?input.text?>"
},
"result_variable": "context.answer"
}
]
}
The message I get now is "Direct CloudFunctions call was not successful. Http response code is [404]". Also the assistant answers "with {"cloud_functions_call_error":"The requested resource does not exist."}

Hi #data_henrik and thanks for the help. I did see the # and corrected it in the edited code, was giving the same problem. BUT I figured it out: the assistant was deployed in Washington... I moved it to London and now it works. Thanks again for the help and sorry for my newbie mistake...
My guess is that the org part in your action name is wrong. Try to replace any "#" with "%40". Else, it will be interpreted by Watson as something else. Next, after you update the dialog node, wait for some seconds for the changes to take effect.
I just tried something with my deployed web actions and could cause the 401 and 404.

I recently developed a project on Amazon Alexa for Smart Home Skill API and We developed using Async Method. In Alexa there are Event Gateway to make post call Asynchronously and deffered response to keep event gateway open. I know that Action on Google has homegraph. Working of HomeGraph and EventGateway is it the same I was wondering?
I was also wondering how can I make the Execution Asynchronous for the Action on Google?
According to my understanding I'll be requiring to make a post call to Homegraph for that purpose.
Yes, you can make a POST to the home graph once the state is completely changed.
For certain types of devices, which may take a while to complete, you can return an execute response with a PENDING:
{
"requestId": "ff36a3cc-ec34-11e6-b1a0-64510650abcf",
"payload": {
"commands": [{
"ids": ["123"],
"status": "PENDING",
"states": {
"on": false,
"online": true
}
}]
}
}
Later, once the status is correct, you can use the Report State API:
{
"requestId": "ff36a3cc-ec34-11e6-b1a0-64510650abcf",
"agentUserId": "1234",
"payload": {
"devices": {
"states": {
"123": {
"on": true
},
}
}
}
}
I tried to connect DialogFlow and Actions on Google, so I created some intents, connected the services, added explicit and implicit invocations etc, but when I try the bot in the simulator https://console.actions.google.com/project/[projectId]/simulator/ it always gives me the error:
"Failed to parse Dialogflow response into AppResponse, exception
thrown with message: Empty speech response"
even tough inputType was "KEYBOARD".
What I tried so far:
I did set "Response from this tab will be sent to the Google Assistant integration" in Dialog Flow (do you have to set it for every single intent?), but I don't see any extra setting for speech.
I disabled the second language, first I had also intents in German
I also turned off the Fullfillment Webhook (implemented in API v1 and then also v2) with no change
I only found this user with the same problem https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/dialogflow/xYjKlz31yW0;context-place=topicsearchin/dialogflow/Empty$20speech$20response but no resolution.
the fulfillment checkbox is checked at the intents
The bot works fine when I use it through "Try it now" on the very right in Dialog Flow or in the Web Demo https://bot.dialogflow.com/994dda8b-4849-4a8a-ab24-c0cd03b5f420
Unfortunately the docs don't say anything about this error. Any ideas?
Here a screenshot of the error on the Actions integration:

Also "debugInfo" sounds like an internal problem:

Here a screenshot of the welcome intent:
ps.
It took me AGES to figure out, what
"Query pattern is missing for custom intent"
means - so I just document it here: In Dialog Flow - Intent - "User says" you have to DOUBLE CLICK on a word in the text input field when you want to set it as query parameter - which seems to be required for Actions on Google.
This happened to me. If this happens for an Intent you just added in the Dialogflow console and you are using Webhook fulfillment for the action, check the intent's fulfillment settings and ensure that the Webhook fulfillment slider is on. Evidently new intents don't automatically get webhook fulfillment: you have to opt each one in piecemeal (or at least, that was my experience).
I experienced this situation too.
My problem was that I used a SimpleResponse in my fulfillment index.js without referencing to it. So the solution for me was to add SimpleResponse like this in index.js:
const {dialogflow, SimpleResponse} = require('actions-on-google');
So, always check if you aren't using any dependencies without including it in your js-file.
Probably not the most common cause of the problem, but it can be.
I got this when running through the codelabs tutorial (https://codelabs.developers.google.com/codelabs/actions-1/index.html#4) and didn't name my intent the same name as it is referenced in the webhook script:
I came across this error when trying to develop my own WebHook. I first verified that my code was called by looking into the Nginx log, after which I knew there was a problem in my JSON output because I based my output on outdated examples.
The (up-to-date) documentation for both V1 and V2 of the API can be found here:
https://dialogflow.com/docs/fulfillment/how-it-works
This example response for v2 of the dialogflow webhook API helped me to resolve this error:
{
"payload": {
"google": {
"expectUserResponse": true,
"richResponse": {
"items": [
{
"simpleResponse": {
"textToSpeech": "this is a simple response"
}
}
]
}
}
}
}
Source: https://github.com/dialogflow/fulfillment-webhook-json/blob/master/responses/v2/ActionsOnGoogle/RichResponses/SimpleResponse.json
You can find more examples in the official github repository linked above.
Another possibility is if you have a text response (even an empty one) like so:
Then you need to click the trash can next to the response to clear it out to use the webhook.
The Actions on Google support helped me fix this problem:
I needed to add a text as Default Response to the intent used for Explicit Invocation.
My smart home app can control my smart home devices already.
However, I can't make Google Home to say like "your device is offline" when the smart home device is offline.
Google Home always says "ok, turning device_name on.".
According to the document and Node.js example provided by Google, I tried 2 kinds of error response:
{
"requestId": "xxxxxxx",
"payload": {
"commands": [{
"ids": ["456"],
"status": "ERROR",
"errorCode": "deviceoffline"
}]
}
}
{
"requestId": "xxxxxxx",
"payload": {
"commands": [{
"ids": ["456"],
"status": "OFFLINE",
"errorCode": "deviceoffline"
}]
}
}
But both are not working.
Please enlighten me. Thanks.
2017/08/02 update:
offline status is working on QUERY, like "Is device_name on?".
Not working on EXEC, like "Turn on device_name".
You missed out online parameter in the JSON. Here is an example of offline
{
"ids": ["456"],
"status": "ERROR",
"errorCode": "deviceTurnedOff",
"online": false
}
Trying to get the impressions per notification of specific group(by using ref).
By the api you can set a group for notifications by adding ref param to the notification request
That worked fine.
Now i am trying to use the API for getting insights as explained here:
insights
I still dont understand how to pass the ref param.
this is my execution:
../app_insights/app_notification_impressions?breakdowns[0]=ref&access_token={access-token}
And in return I get this:
{
"data": [
{
"time": "2014-12-09T08:00:00+0000",
"value": "44",
"breakdowns": {
"ref": "no_ref_specified"
}
}
]
}
How I am passing the request the ref value?
I tried all kind of combinations and I get errors.
I posted notification with diff ref. ref=test0099 and Now I see this:
{
"data": [
{
"time": "2014-12-09T08:00:00+0000",
"value": "3",
"breakdowns": {
"ref": "no_ref_specified"
}
},
{
"time": "2014-12-10T08:00:00+0000",
"value": "1",
"breakdowns": {
"ref": "test0099"
Maybe there is some bug over there?
thanks,
ray.
Edit:
Stating your findings
for some reason you cant notify with ref which is only numeric or start with numeric
Again, it still comes to down to file a bug.
From IRC, just stating that you should file a bug.
As long as the app is a canvas app and a game you should be able to see the desired response
HTTP POST /13608786/notifications with App Token and
template=Yo this is a test
ref=test0099
You should receive the notification
And be redirected to the canvas page
https://apps.facebook.com/philippeharewood/?fb_source=notification&fb_ref=test0099&ref=notif¬if_t=app_notification
The insights will reflect the same
HTTP GET /app/app_insights/app_notification_impressions?breakdowns[0]=ref
{
"data": [
{
"time": "2014-12-10T08:00:00+0000",
"value": "1",
"breakdowns": {
"ref": "test0099"
}
}
]
}
This issue apparently to be a bug.
I have assigned this into facebook developers and now they taking care of it.
