Use two from_intent mappings for different slots

post by n3rdc4ptn on Feb 1, 2022

Hello, this is my first topic.

My bot is getting information from the user via a form and I have two boolean slots where the user should answer yes or no to affirm and deny the question.

slots:
  confirm_restaurant_interest:
    type: bool
    mappings:
      - type: from_intent
        intent: affirm
        value: true
      - type: from_intent
        intent: deny
        value: false
  confirm_sights_interest:
    type: bool
    mappings:
      - type: from_intent
        intent: affirm
        value: true
      - type: from_intent
        intent: deny
        value: false

I also created two utterances for asking for the slots:

utter_ask_confirm_restaurant_interest:
  - text: Möchtest Du in Restaurants essen gehen?
utter_ask_confirm_sights_interest:
  - text: Möchtest Du Sehenswürdigkeiten sehen?

But when I start testing the bot I will only be asked for the first one “restaurant_interest” and after I answer the question the bot puts in true for both slots.

Is there a way to “reset” the from_intent mapping between these questions? So that the user will be asked for both slots separately?

I tried to find a solution online, but can't really find anything and also don't know how this behavior is called.

I fixed it myself using a condition.

confirm_restaurant_interest:
  type: bool
  mappings:
    - type: from_intent
      intent: affirm
      value: true
      conditions:
        - active_loop: recommend_form
          requested_slot: confirm_restaurant_interest
    - type: from_intent
      intent: deny
      value: false
      conditions:
        - active_loop: recommend_form
          requested_slot: confirm_restaurant_interest
confirm_sights_interest:
  type: bool
  mappings:
    - type: from_intent
      intent: affirm
      value: true
      conditions:
        - active_loop: recommend_form
          requested_slot: confirm_sights_interest
    - type: from_intent
      intent: deny
      value: false
      conditions:
        - active_loop: recommend_form
          requested_slot: confirm_sights_interest
