How to create and configure Slots

Script branching depending on conditions| Transition Rule slot and Condition subslot

Purpose and general information

⁠

@Transition Rule⁠

is a

@Slot⁠

that allows you to make branching scenarios depending on the conditions specified in the

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

⁠

Slot creation and settings

Slot attributes

⁠

Name — the name of the

@Slot⁠

, which will be displayed in the

@Script Tree⁠

. The maximum length of a field value is 40 characters.

Condition subslots

Automatic generation of subslots when creating a Transition Rule

When you create a

@Transition Rule⁠

@Slot⁠

, two required

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

s are automatically created.

⁠

The first of them always has the value “main”, which can be changed using Syntax

The second one, which has the value “true” and the name FALLBACK_CONDITION, cannot be changed. This

@Subslot⁠

will always remain the lowest in this

@Complex Slot⁠

— all new

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

s will automatically be placed above it.

Adding Condition subslots

Using the “+” button you can create a new

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

⁠

⁠

New

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

s will be located above the automatically created

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

with the value “true” in the order in which they were created.

⁠

Removing Condition subslots

To remove a

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

, you need to right-click on it and click the Remove Branch button, then click OK in the pop-up dialog box.

⁠

It is possible to delete any

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

, except the

@Subslot⁠

with the value true, if after deletion the

@Transition Rule⁠

has at least two

@Subslot⁠

s left.

⁠

Removing a

@Subslot⁠

with the value true or the only one besides it is impossible. When you try to do this, the following error will appear at the bottom center:

⁠

Condition subslot attributes

⁠

Nameー the name of the

@Slot⁠

, which will be displayed in the

@Script Tree⁠

. The maximum length of a field value is 40 characters. If a name is not entered when creating a

@Subslot⁠

, the first 40 characters of text from the Condition field are automatically copied to the Name field. If the Name field is cleared when editing a

@Subslot⁠

, then the first 34 characters from the Condition field will be displayed on the

@Subslot⁠

in the

@Script Tree⁠

Condition ー a logical expression that will be checked during the

@Conversation⁠

process, and if the check result is TRUE, a transition will occur to the

@Script Branch⁠

following this

@Subslot⁠

. The expression is specified using syntax. Scrolling is available in the Condition field if the expression is long.

Important: Checking for an impossible operation will return False:

1. Invalid operation, for example, the expression 1 < a4

2. Comparison with a non-existent variable

3. Comparing a string using the operations >, <, >=, <=

The \ character in the

@Subslot⁠

must be escaped: it must be preceded by a \ character, otherwise the

@Agent⁠

will not be trained. Read more:

Requirements for successful Agent training⁠

Using the syntax in a slot

In the

@Transition Rule⁠

@Slot⁠

, it is possible to use

@Expression⁠

in the Condition field. Read more:

Syntax⁠

The result of calculating the condition will be a Boolean value: True or False. If the result of calculating the condition is a value of some other type (string, number, list, etc.), then it will be cast to a Boolean type.

Slot operation

When the

@Conversation⁠

passes through the

@Transition Rule⁠

@Slot⁠

, the truth of the expressions specified in the

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

s is checked from the upper

@Subslot⁠

to the lower one;

The

@Conversation⁠

will immediately go to the

@Script Branch⁠

of the first

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

, the result of the expression of which will be TRUE; expressions in the lower

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

s will not be checked. For example, if the

@Context Variable⁠

{{ username }} is a string and has the value “Ivan”, there will be a transition to the

@condition⁠

@Subslot⁠

@Script Branch⁠

with the condition {{ username == 'Ivan' }} since this condition will be the first to be satisfied during the check.
