Creating a custom action in Botpress
Botpress allows the creation of customized actions to perform automation and integrations with other systems through API Rest.
To continue with our example of transferring our URA, let's now create a transfer action in Rocket.
Access your Bot in Botpress Studio:
1 – Click on “Code Editor” ( ):
2 – Click on the “+” to add a new Action
Name it rocketchat-Transfer.js and click Submit:
Delete all content from the editor and paste the content available at the link below:
It will look like this:
Adjust the rocketWebhook constant (on line 5 in the image above) according to your environment. It should point to your Rocket.Chat server.
Click the save button in the lower left corner of the screen.
Adding transfer to Flow
Now access the Botpress Studio flow editor again:
So let's set up the transfer.
Click the transfer node for support and then click the “+” button to add the transfer action:
Then select “Execute code” and choose the newly created action “Channel Rocket.Chat – Transfer visitor to department”.
Put the department name in the Rocket.Chat Omnichannel (which you must have created previously =D).
If desired, customize the transfer text as well.
Click on "Add Action":
Do the same with other departments.
If necessary, retrain your BOT to complete:
Testing the transfer on Livechat
Open a new livechat:
Check the current department on Omnichannel:
Now request the transfer to another department:
Check it out now on Rocket.Chat:
