botkit-middleware | connect Watson Conversation Service to different chat | Bot library

Im currently hosting the Slackbot on IBM cloud. Everything works fine until I want to add Interactive messages.

This is a part of the documentation

In order to use interactive messages, your bot will have to be registered as a Slack application, and will have to use the Slack button authentication system. To receive callbacks, register a callback url as part of applications configuration. Botkit's built in support for the Slack Button system supports interactive message callbacks at the url https://_your_server_/slack/receive Note that Slack requires this url to be secured with https.

So what I understod is the BOTKIT creates an Request URL I can use. in this case https://_my_ibm_cloud_url_/slack/receive

But of course this does not work, otherwise I wouldn't be here :)

Does anybody have an idea?

This is how it's setup at the moment.

server.js

I followed this tutorial to deploy a Slackbot with Watson Assistant. The tutorial uses server actions in the dialog to directly interface with a database. To connect Slack with Watson Assistant the tutorial uses the Conversation connector. That works fine, but I am interested in how to do the same with Botkit and the Botkit Middleware provided by Watson Developer Cloud.

How can I use the serverless actions, how do I obtain and pass the necessary API key?

I'm using this sample code here: https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/botkit-middleware.

I have essentially setup twilio, watson conversation with an active workflow already. My problem is that when sending text message to twilio, twilio sends a POST request to a webhook that I exposed using ngrok. But when my code picks up the POST request it's being received with empty body. no text, user, from, to. or whatever. I'm using Twilio SMS Bot and not the Twilio IPM Bot.

from botkit

I am new to the bot world. I am trying to integrate a Conversation service create on IBM Watson with a Slack Bot using the botkit middleware. I have simply obtained the code from Git (Botkit Slack Integration and am trying to use that to answer queries on Slack from my Watson Conversation service. But, upon receiving the slack messages, the API returns following errors. There is not much documentation on how to handle these errors on Internet. Could someone please help me out?

I am having trouble formatting the slackbot responses. The slactbot is connected with watson conversation through botkit (https://github.com/watson-developer-cloud/botkit-middleware). Thanks a lot

My ultimate goal is to format a JSONArray as a list in the response. But I couldn't find anything about it. I can't even output a newline with '\n' or '\\n'. On the Watson Dashboard, I would output something like this:

I notice that you shop for: $e_list.join('\n')

I'm trying to api.ai middleware plugin with botkit-sms, I'm tryting to debug the source code, why this isn't working, but will be helpful if you can provide some input

Source code of the library https://github.com/krismuniz/botkit-sms/

I'm new to Angular and I would like to integrate a Watson conversation bot into my angular module, but i can't include a library in Angular. I am using botkit-middleware-watson to get the Watson answer.

With the code bellow, I manage to get a slackBot running.
