Yes, you can achieve this in Botpress by using a combination of content elements and custom code actions. Here’s a step-by-step guide to create a bot that randomly picks one of 10 different greeting messages to respond to users:Create Greeting Messages:Store your greeting messages in a JSON array. You can define this array within a custom action or in a configuration file.Custom Action:Create a custom action that selects a random greeting from the array.Integrate Custom Action into a Bot Flow:Use the custom action in your bot's flow to set the selected greeting message as a variable.Use the variable in a bot response to send the greeting to the user.Here are the detailed steps: Step 1: Define Greeting MessagesCreate a JSON array with your greetings.{ "greetings": [ "Hello! How can I assist you today?", "Hi there! What can I do for you?", "Hey! Need any help?", "Good day! How can I help?", "Hello! What can I do for you?", "Hi! How can I assist?", "Greetings! How can I help you today?", "Hey there! What do you need assistance with?", "Hi! How may I help you?", "Hello! What can I assist you with?" ] } Step 2: Create a Custom ActionCreate a custom action in Botpress to pick a random greeting. You can create this action in data/actions.const greetings = [ "Hello! How can I assist you today?", "Hi there! What can I do for you?", "Hey! Need any help?", "Good day! How can I help?", "Hello! What can I do for you?", "Hi! How can I assist?", "Greetings! How can I help you today?", "Hey there! What do you need assistance with?", "Hi! How may I help you?", "Hello! What can I assist you with?" ]; function getRandomGreeting() { const randomIndex = Math.floor(Math.random() * greetings.length); return greetings[randomIndex]; } const selectedGreeting = getRandomGreeting(); bp.dialog.setVariable('greetingMessage', selectedGreeting);
Step 3: Integrate Custom Action into a Bot FlowGo to the Botpress Studio and open your bot.Create a new flow or open an existing one where you want to use the greeting message.Add a new action node to the flow.In the action node, select the custom action you created (e.g., randomGreetingAction).Set the variable greetingMessage to store the output of the custom action.Add a message node that uses the greetingMessage variable in its response.Example:Action Node:Name: Set Random GreetingCode: Select your custom action file (e.g., randomGreetingAction.js).Message Node:Text: {{greetingMessage}}With these steps, your bot will randomly pick one of the 10 greeting messages for each user interaction, ensuring different users receive different greetings.
