How to connect GoCanvas and Google Dialogflow ES
Create a New Scenario to Connect GoCanvas and Google Dialogflow ES
In the workspace, click the “Create New Scenario” button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node – a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a GoCanvas, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, GoCanvas or Google Dialogflow ES will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find GoCanvas or Google Dialogflow ES, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the GoCanvas Node
Select the GoCanvas node from the app selection panel on the right.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring GoCanvas, Google Dialogflow ES, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the GoCanvas and Google Dialogflow ES integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between GoCanvas and Google Dialogflow ES (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect GoCanvas and Google Dialogflow ES
GoCanvas + Google Dialogflow ES + Google Sheets: When a new submission is created in GoCanvas, the data is sent to Google Dialogflow ES to detect the intent. The detected intent and relevant information from the GoCanvas submission are then logged into a Google Sheet.
Google Dialogflow ES + GoCanvas + Twilio: When a user interacts with the Google Dialogflow ES chatbot and schedules an onsite inspection, the chatbot uses the collected data to create a dispatch in GoCanvas. A Twilio SMS message is then sent to confirm the scheduled inspection.
