How to connect Motion and Google Dialogflow ES
Create a New Scenario to Connect Motion 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 Motion, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, Motion or Google Dialogflow ES will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find Motion or Google Dialogflow ES, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

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

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Motion, 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 Motion and Google Dialogflow ES integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Motion 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 Motion and Google Dialogflow ES
Google Dialogflow ES + Motion + Google Calendar: When a user makes a request to Google Dialogflow ES to schedule a meeting, the automation detects the intent. It then checks availability in Motion using task details. If availability is confirmed, the automation creates an event in Google Calendar.
Google Dialogflow ES + Motion + Slack: When Google Dialogflow ES fails to answer a user request, the automation triggers the creation of a new task in Motion. The automation then sends a notification to a designated Slack channel to alert the team about the unresolved query and the newly created Motion task.
