Most powerful ways to connect Google Dialogflow ES and Slack bot
Google Dialogflow ES + Slack bot + Google Sheets: When a user interacts with the Dialogflow ES bot, their input is detected and analyzed. This input, along with any relevant context, is then logged as a new row in a Google Sheet for sentiment analysis and feedback tracking. Simultaneously, the bot sends a confirmation message back to the user via Slack.
Slack bot + Google Dialogflow ES + Jira: When a user sends a message containing a complex request to the Slack bot, the message is sent to Google Dialogflow ES to detect the user's intent. If Dialogflow ES determines that a Jira ticket needs to be created based on the user's request, then a new Jira issue is created and a confirmation message is sent back to the user via Slack.
