Could you share a screenshot of how you're using intents?

it looks like your intents are set up in a loop. Intents are evaluated only after user input, so that it typically right after the start node or after a capture card.
l
So I should position it after the whatFor card?
it still doesn't work

another question
will the intent card work even if the workflows goes into like a subflow?

Why would you use an expression card to check for it again? Just have the intent card with the intent on the node that you want and then from there redirect the use. To test the actual intent card and see if it works i would place it right after the start node. This means that the first node contains the intent card. Then from the intent card I would go to another node with a bit of text such as "This is the Main menu". This would make sure that the intent actually works. I can give you an example of how I used to use intents in my workflow when I get to my pc
l
sure send me an example
i want the intent to servce the wholeflow
can that be possible?
serve*
and one question, will the global intent card work if I place it in the starting node and the flow goes into other sub flows?
That is how i would use intents if i had to
But generally i wouldn't use them
l
yo how do i open this file?
its not compatible with my laptop
can you send it in a another format
thanks @fresh-fireman-491

You don't open it. You import it on Botpress. Create a new bot. Then import it
l
ahh ok thanks
