Class FlowsClient (0.3.0)

FlowsClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.dialogflowcx_v3.services.flows.transports.base.FlowsTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

Service for managing Flows.

Properties

transport

Return the transport used by the client instance.

Returns
Type	Description
`FlowsTransport`	The transport used by the client instance.

Methods

FlowsClient

FlowsClient(*, credentials: Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials] = None, transport: Optional[Union[str, google.cloud.dialogflowcx_v3.services.flows.transports.base.FlowsTransport]] = None, client_options: Optional[google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] = None, client_info: google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo = <google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo object>)

Instantiate the flows client.

Parameters
Name	Description
`credentials`	`Optional[google.auth.credentials.Credentials]` The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify the application to the service; if none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment.
`transport`	`Union[str, .FlowsTransport]` The transport to use. If set to None, a transport is chosen automatically.
`client_options`	`client_options_lib.ClientOptions` Custom options for the client. It won't take effect if a `transport` instance is provided. (1) The `api_endpoint` property can be used to override the default endpoint provided by the client. GOOGLE_API_USE_MTLS_ENDPOINT environment variable can also be used to override the endpoint: "always" (always use the default mTLS endpoint), "never" (always use the default regular endpoint) and "auto" (auto switch to the default mTLS endpoint if client certificate is present, this is the default value). However, the `api_endpoint` property takes precedence if provided. (2) If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE environment variable is "true", then the `client_cert_source` property can be used to provide client certificate for mutual TLS transport. If not provided, the default SSL client certificate will be used if present. If GOOGLE_API_USE_CLIENT_CERTIFICATE is "false" or not set, no client certificate will be used.
`client_info`	`google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo` The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If `None`, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you're developing your own client library.

Exceptions
Type	Description
`google.auth.exceptions.MutualTLSChannelError`	If mutual TLS transport creation failed for any reason.

create_flow

Creates a flow in the specified agent.

Parameters
Name	Description
`request`	`.gcdc_flow.CreateFlowRequest` The request object. The request message for Flows.CreateFlow.
`parent`	`str` Required. The agent to create a flow for. Format: `projects/`. This corresponds to the `parent` field on the `request` instance; if `request` is provided, this should not be set.
`flow`	`.gcdc_flow.Flow` Required. The flow to create. This corresponds to the `flow` field on the `request` instance; if `request` is provided, this should not be set.

`metadata`	`Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]` Strings which should be sent along with the request as metadata.

Returns

Type Description

.gcdc_flow.Flow Flows represents the conversation flows when you build your chatbot agent. A flow consists of many pages connected by the transition routes. Conversations always start with the built-in Start Flow (with an all-0 ID). Transition routes can direct the conversation session from the current flow (parent flow) to another flow (sub flow). When the sub flow is finished, Dialogflow will bring the session back to the parent flow, where the sub flow is started. Usually, when a transition route is followed by a matched intent, the intent will be "consumed". This means the intent won't activate more transition routes. However, when the followed transition route moves the conversation session into a different flow, the matched intent can be carried over and to be consumed in the target flow.
