Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Dialogflow V2 Client class SessionsClient.
Service Description: A service used for session interactions.
For more information, see the API interactions guide.
This class provides the ability to make remote calls to the backing service through method calls that map to API methods. Sample code to get started:
$sessionsClient = new SessionsClient();
try {
$formattedSession = $sessionsClient->sessionName('[PROJECT]', '[SESSION]');
$queryInput = new QueryInput();
$response = $sessionsClient->detectIntent($formattedSession, $queryInput);
} finally {
$sessionsClient->close();
}
Many parameters require resource names to be formatted in a particular way. To assist with these names, this class includes a format method for each type of name, and additionally a parseName method to extract the individual identifiers contained within formatted names that are returned by the API.

__construct
Constructor.
Parameters | |
---|---|
Name | Description |
options |
array
Optional. Options for configuring the service API wrapper. |
↳ apiEndpoint |
string
The address of the API remote host. May optionally include the port, formatted as "
|
↳ credentials |
string|array|FetchAuthTokenInterface|CredentialsWrapper
The credentials to be used by the client to authorize API calls. This option accepts either a path to a credentials file, or a decoded credentials file as a PHP array. Advanced usage: In addition, this option can also accept a pre-constructed Google\Auth\FetchAuthTokenInterface object or Google\ApiCore\CredentialsWrapper object. Note that when one of these objects are provided, any settings in $credentialsConfig will be ignored. |
↳ credentialsConfig |
array
Options used to configure credentials, including auth token caching, for the client. For a full list of supporting configuration options, see Google\ApiCore\CredentialsWrapper::build() . |
↳ disableRetries |
bool
Determines whether or not retries defined by the client configuration should be disabled. Defaults to |
↳ clientConfig |
string|array
Client method configuration, including retry settings. This option can be either a path to a JSON file, or a PHP array containing the decoded JSON data. By default this settings points to the default client config file, which is provided in the resources folder. |
↳ transport |
string|TransportInterface
The transport used for executing network requests. May be either the string |
↳ transportConfig |
array
Configuration options that will be used to construct the transport. Options for each supported transport type should be passed in a key for that transport. For example: $transportConfig = [ 'grpc' => [...], 'rest' => [...], ]; See the Google\ApiCore\Transport\GrpcTransport::build() and Google\ApiCore\Transport\RestTransport::build() methods for the supported options. |
↳ clientCertSource |
callable
A callable which returns the client cert as a string. This can be used to provide a certificate and private key to the transport layer for mTLS. |
detectIntent
Processes a natural language query and returns structured, actionable data as a result. This method is not idempotent, because it may cause contexts and session entity types to be updated, which in turn might affect results of future queries.
If you might use
Agent Assist
or other CCAI products now or in the future, consider using
AnalyzeContent
instead of DetectIntent
. AnalyzeContent
has additional
functionality for Agent Assist and other CCAI products.
Note: Always use agent versions for production traffic. See Versions and environments.
Parameters | |
---|---|
Name | Description |
session |
string
Required. The name of the session this query is sent to. Format:
For more information, see the API interactions guide. Note: Always use agent versions for production traffic. See Versions and environments. |

Required. The input specification. It can be set to:
|
optionalArgs |
array
Optional. |
↳ queryParams |
QueryParameters
The parameters of this query. |
↳ outputAudioConfig |
OutputAudioConfig
Instructs the speech synthesizer how to generate the output audio. If this field is not set and agent-level speech synthesizer is not configured, no output audio is generated. |
↳ outputAudioConfigMask |
FieldMask
Mask for output_audio_config indicating which settings in this request-level config should override speech synthesizer settings defined at agent-level. If unspecified or empty, output_audio_config replaces the agent-level config in its entirety. |
↳ inputAudio |
string
The natural language speech audio to be processed. This field should be populated iff |
↳ retrySettings |
RetrySettings|array
Retry settings to use for this call. Can be a Google\ApiCore\RetrySettings object, or an associative array of retry settings parameters. See the documentation on Google\ApiCore\RetrySettings for example usage. |
