Conversation Actions for Google Assistant

on YouTube ↗48m

" summary

Builds a working conversational Action for Google Assistant starting from an API.AI agent through live coding, with concrete intents (welcome, farewell, make-appointment, diagnosis), custom entities for body parts, and date/time system parameters extracted into JSON. Demonstrates a Cloud Functions webhook that receives the payload, uses parameter lists and a persistent session ID to accumulate context, hooks to a backend calendar or expert system, and mostly works on stage though the final invocation demo fails.
