New to Kendo UI for AngularStart a free 30-day trial

Using with Google DialogFlow

This article showcases an example project demonstrating how the Google Dialogflow API V2 can be consumed by the Conversational UI component. For the purpose we created a sample backend server based on Express which is used to make requests using the credentials of a test service account.

  1. Log into the Google Dialogflow console and create a new agent.

  2. Use the "Restore from ZIP" to import the agent.zip file located in the backend folder.

  3. Get a service account key and export it as a JSON file.

    You will need to set up a payment method for Google Cloud Functions. There is a generous free tier of 2 million requests, but usage is not capped.

  4. Rename the key JSON file to credentials.json and add it to the project backend/server folder.

  5. Deploy the Fulfillment code as demonstrated in the project `backend/webhook' folder using the Inline Editor.
