article by Frank Nimphius, September 2020 In an earlier article on Oracle TechExchange, I explained how to implement a feedback feature for answers to frequently asked questions. In the article I used a custom component that actually handled the feedback interaction with a user. In this article I explain the same use case using BotML for handling the feedback conversation (or any other follow-up conversation needed). A benefit of the approach explained in the article is that...

If you need to view the Insights data for a Digital Assistant and at the same time also view the events for its constituent skills, you can export the data to a CSV file and create your own reports from there. You also can automate the export, which gives you a way to monitor how well an Oracle Digital Assistant is functioning at certain time intervals, for example. You do this making by REST calls to the Insights for Skills API from a script, as described in this topic.

Oracle Digital Assistant lives in the cloud where it uses universal time (UTC) for all data operations. Dependent to where you live in this world, the timezone offset of your local time compared to UTC varies. For Germany, where I am based in, the timezone offset is 2 hours that Germany is ahead of UTC (or 7200000 ms). UTC is a common date and time reference used in many applications and software products. However, the user local time is often needed, for example if there...

Answer intent in Oracle Digital Assistant uses Trainer Tm, a machine learning model, to understand how users ask for a particular answer. Unlike other systems that map an answer to one or more questions in order to retrieve the answer, the machine learning based system learns from examples (utterances) allowing it to produce answer with high confidence. Also, by using Trainer Tm as the machine learning model in Oracle Digital Assistant, answer intents use the same optimized...

Value-list entities in Oracle Digital Assistant are limited in the number of values they can hold even if they are created as dynamic entities. Reality is that customers look for a way to extract entities from a large set of data values that easily may be in the hundreds of thousand records. In this article we explain how this requirement can be achieved with the Oracle database and Oracle Data Rest Services (ORDS).

Answer intents in Oracle Digital Assistant skills integrate frequently asked questions to a user – bot conversation. Frequently asked questions is neither a new concept nor is it a chatbot specific concept, which means that many resources exist on the web for chatbot developers to use as a starting point. In this article we will show how you can use Node.js to scrape existing frequently asked questions from a website and save it in a format that you then can import as answer...
