Hello Synthiam ARC Support Team,
I hope this email finds you well. I am currently working on a project where I am trying to integrate an external chatbot with the ARC platform. My goal is to have my robot utilize the chatbot's responses for user interactions.
Here's a brief overview of my setup:
I have a chatbot that is accessible via an HTTP POST request. I would like to send queries to this chatbot from ARC and receive responses. Based on these responses, I aim to make the robot perform certain actions or communicate the response back to the user. I've tried using a Python script to handle the HTTP requests, and I wanted to invoke this script from within ARC. However, I encountered some challenges in executing external commands directly from the ARC scripting environment.
I'm reaching out to ask if there's a recommended method or best practice for integrating external APIs or chatbots with ARC. Any plugins, tools, or scripting techniques that you could suggest would be greatly appreciated?
To have the best integration, I’d recommend creating a robot skill that communicates with your chat bot server
that way, you can add control commands so ppl can send text to it. Here’s the manual: https://synthiam.com/Support/Create-Robot-Skill/Overview
Yeah that was going to be our next approach, creating a skill and then deploying it. Thank you!
