Today I noticed for the first time that the dialogue for the Watson Question and Answer service has an extra field that I haven't seen in other services.
"Credential name"
what is that used for?
Why does it not exist for other services?
Which services does it exist for?
What is the cf-cli equivalent?
You can now create multiple credentials for a single service and provide a name for them. As German suggested above, details are provided in this post on new Bluemix updates. For clarity, the "Credential Name" option is shown in this image of the Concept Insights service .

I was on this webpage and decided I wanted to sign up for Watson's Text Analytics service.
https://www.ibm.com/demos/live/natural-language-understanding/self-service/home
However, after 20 minutes of searching I am unable to find anything like this in the IBM cloud. I followed the link on the same page to sign up.
Can someone please tell me the name of the service that is displayed in the Natural-Language-Understanding webpage so that I can learn more about it and sign up for it?
thanks,
The link is https://cloud.ibm.com/catalog/services/natural-language-understanding
Generally, you can access IBM Cloud and search any service from the Catalog section
I am using IBM Watson Assisstant to create a chatbot, and created a Watson Discovery collection too in the project.
I need help in that how the dialogs works to take a response from the Discovery collection when an intent along with the entities are detected in the try section.
in the response section we have to define something or there is something else similar like text response
is the discovery response is only available in the app on which we work
There are a couple of options to link up a IBM Watson Assistant chatbot to IBM Watson Discovery.
The first and oldest is to have the application interact with Watson Assistant and, depending on the flow, context and response send a request to Watson Discovery. Basically, the integration is done in the application layer.
The second option is to use server or client dialog actions in Assistant to directly call into Discovery. See my blog on a barebone news chatbot and the related code on GitHub on how to implement such an action. My example uses client actions (basically let the app handle it again), but server actions are similar. This IBM Cloud solution tutorial covers server actions for a database-driven bot.
The newest option and currently in beta is to use the direct integration of Assistant and Discovery. See "Building a search skill" for an introduction into this direct linkage between IBM Watson Assistant and IBM Watson Discovery.
The option 2 (server action) and 3 should work from the "Try it" in the tooling, the others not because of the app-based coordination.
As usual in IT, there are different way to achieve the goal, the choice is yours... ;-)
I am trying to create a new Watson Conversation service in the Sydney region.
I am trying to do this from this page: https://console.bluemix.net/catalog/services/watson-assistant-formerly-conversation
When I choose "US South" as the region, the page shows two additional dropdowns: "Choose an organization:" and "Choose a space:". In that case the service is created normally. However, if I select "Sydney" as the region, those two dropdowns disappear.
As a result, when I create a new Watson Conversation service in Sydney, it is created as an "IAM service" instead of a "Cloud Foundry service". This means the API has a completely different authentication system so it is not suitable for my application.
How do I create a "Cloud Foundry service" in the Sydney region?
That does not work because Watson Assistant is transitioning towards the IAM model in all regions. This is also the case for more and more of the other services. It enhances security, gives more control and aligns with the resource model across IBM Cloud. Here is the relevant part in the Watson Assistant release notes.
My recommendation is to look into that IAM (Identity and Access Management) model and adapt it for the app.
I am trying to test the new Natural Language Classifier service on IBM Bluemix. Unfortunately the web address mentioned seems to be unavailable :
https://gateway-watsonplatform.net/natural-language-classifier-beta/api/v1/classifiers
Can you help ?
Thank you
There is one typo (or more) in your URL above. It should read "gateway.watsonplatform.net" (without a dash). However, this is still not an address you should use directly or in a browser: That URL is the API entry point, which you should GET or POST accordingly to the service documentation (see also the API reference).
When you create a service instance in Bluemix, you will obtain a set of "credentials", including a username and password, and also the correct URL as a base path for the APIs. That is the URL you should use (which may vary, so it should not be included here as a solution).
I'm trying to use the "API Management" service on Bluemix, but I have the message "Not fetch data plans".. so I can't use the service
I'm trying to change the country or region, but it's always the same message.
I need help clarifying what causes this problem.
I had the same problem with Firefox as the browser and German as content language. The moment I set the language of the browser to English, the plan details on API management appears and I am able to create the service.
