From my Deals List - yes intent, if I direct the user to another intent called Product Details by evoking its action with conv.followup(). It will send the user there with it's expected parameters.
conv.followup('product_detail_intent_event', {
product: productName
});
So far, so good, however, the Product Detail intent has a yes followup intent of its own that is defined on dialogflow and handled in our webhook. This follow up intent triggers as expected under normal circumstances, but not when we have entered the product detail intent via the conv.followup() method.
If the user says yes, it repeats the Product Detail intent. If they say yes again, it will then work as expected.
My suspicion was that dialogflow had not been updated about the changed intent and therefore did not know about the followup, but logging conv.intent returns the intent Product Detail which is the correct and expected intent.
Do I need to do something extra to inform dialogflow that the user is now in the Product Detail intent and that a yes followup intent is available from this point?
EDIT: Just so it is clear, the intent I am coming from Deals List - yes is a yes followup itself. Not sure if this is perhaps what may be confusing dialogflow
