In this course participants explore the development of chatbots with one of the main chatbot development frameworks Googles Dialogflow Developer Console. Start by creating an agent for a chatbot and exploring default intents in Dialogflow. Intents map what a user says to what the bot should do. You will then create custom intents in Dialogflow.

Enable the Small Talk feature for a chatbot and test its functionality in Dialogflow. Then learn how to write inline cloud functions to satisfy a fulfillment in Dialogflow.
