Interact with bots

Send messages to bot

You can send a text message to chatbot backend with send() command. The method returns a promise that includes the chatbot response.

src/App.tsx
import { Interactions } from '@aws-amplify/interactions';
const userInput = "I want to reserve a hotel for tonight";
// Provide a bot name and user input
const response = await Interactions.send({
botName: "TheBotName",
message: userInput
});
// Log chatbot response
console.log(response.message);

Display end of chat message

You can use onComplete() method to register a function to catch errors or chatbot confirmations when the session successfully ends.

src/App.tsx
import { Interactions } from '@aws-amplify/interactions';
Interactions.onComplete({
botName: "TheBotName",
callback: (error?: Error, completion?: {[key: string]: any}) => {
if (error) {
alert('bot conversation failed');
} else if (completion) {
console.debug('done: ' + JSON.stringify(completion, null, 2));
alert('Trip booked. Thank you! What would you like to do next?');
}
}
});
