Zapier Action

The Zapier Action is used to integrate MindBehind with other online platforms thanks to Zapier's wide market. This action sends the current assistant state to Zapier for any further custom actions you want to do with that state. A simple scenario stores all user messages inside a Google sheet.

Zapier Action is used to fire a Zap on the Zapier side and to send the following parameters in the body of the message:

  • params: The current state params.
  • lastIntent: The last intent the AI predicts for the user input.
  • message: The last user message sent to the bot.

The flow will continue using the Zapier Action connection.
