watson-conversation-v1: unable to obtain Welcome message through node-red #448

Closed rophy closed 5 years ago

rophy commented 5 years ago

Version: 0.7.5

This is a follow up of #298.

See: https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/node-red-node-watson/issues/298#issuecomment-304752443

Payload isn't because the way to trigger conversation_start is to reset the context and not send an empty message.

This statement is inaccurate. welcome is not conversation_start, as explained in the official docs.

Resetting the context does NOT trigger welcome, sending an empty payload does, see here, here and here for reference.

Update: Just noticed 2 out of the 3 references were actually answered by you @chughts, so I think you understand the requirement more than I do. May be there is another way in node-red to get welcome message other than "sending an empty payload"?

Not too sure what point you are making. Are you requesting a code change?

I am going to close this issue as I suspect that this is a usage question. As you are not doubt already aware we do not answer usage questions in this repo. Instead if you as the question on Stack Overflow or DeveloperWorks Answers then someone from the community will be glad to respond.

If in the forum discussion it is realised that a coding change is required then I will reopen this issue.
