Watson assistant entity created with pattern is not setting the matched value in context variable

Question

I have created a entity which has pattern to match 5 digits only, below is the pattern for that.

^([0-9]{5})*?$

But in the node when I am checking for slots and adding the value into a context variable, it is always taking the value name from entity not the value which user is providing.

Below is the image for the node.

For patterns you need to add the literal suffix.

So change your 5th slot "Check for" to:

@Customer_Id.literal

Without this your context variable only stores the value of the entity found. Which in your case is the same as the entity name.
