I couldn't find in documents to do so other than using wild cards

Expected Behavior

For example User: book my flight? Bot: sure.. where you want to go? User: Singapore Bot: from where you want to travel> User: India

Current Behavior

Possible Solution

Steps to Reproduce

1. 2. 3. 4.

Context (Environment)

• Version of Y-Bot:
• Version of Python:
• Operating System ( inc Version ):

Detailed Description

In this example I want to set two entities as 'from' and 'to' bud could do so as wild cards are assigning both user inputs to the same entity... Help

Possible Implementation

You need to assign the match in each question to a variable as follows

<category>
    <pattern>book my flight</pattern>
    <template> 
        <set name=“topic”>bookflightto</set>
        sure.. where you want to go?
    </template>
</category>

<topic name=“bookflightto>
<category>
    <pattern>*</pattern>
    <template>
        <set name=“topic”>bookflightfrom</set>
        <set name=“to"><star /></set>
         where you want to travel?
    </template>
<category>
</topic

<topic name=“bookflightfrom>
<category>
    <pattern>*</pattern>
    <template>
        <set name=“from"><star /></set>
        Booking a flight from <get name=“from” /> to <get name=“to” />
    </template>
<category>
</topic

No problem, did that work for you ?

It’s a common pattern for performing a series of questions and answers and controlling flow

Yes it worked for me... I am new to AIML based chat bots and still exploring what more we can do with special tags.
