Client Data |
You can enable your bot to let your users navigate to the right page of the current application (for example, the SAP Fiori launchpad of an SAP S/4HANA system, SAP SuccessFactors, or BizX) without reloading the page or losing the bot client. Using the Client Data option under SEND MESSAGE, you can define a custom action in the form of a JSON object as a valid reply from your bot. When using the SAP Conversational AI Web Client, you should define specific client behavior by implementing the JavaScript API. See Development under SAP Conversational AI Web Client. |

Variables in Scripting |
While building a bot, you can now use scripting with variables in all types of actions that already support the usage of variables, for example, Send Message, Edit Memory and Go-To actions. This allows you to manipulate and extract data, (stored in objects memory, conversation state, api_service_response) dynamically at runtime. See Scripting with Variables. |

Reset Conversation |
You can create a skill and add a RESET CONVERSATION action under UPDATE CONVERSATION that resets the conversation state. For example, during a conversation, if a user wants to discontinue the current topic and start a new skill, the reset skill is triggered to reset the conversation. Alternatively, you can also execute the RESET CONVERSATION action after the completion of a conversation flow. See Actions. |
