Overview

Overview

This Skill gives the Digital Person the ability to conversationally schedule a Microsoft Outlook meeting. The Skill is triggered by saying Create/Setup/Schedule (an event)/(a meeting). This skill uses the Microsoft Office 365 Graph API to find people in an organization and get their calendar information.

In order to create an event, the user must provide a date, time, and title. In response to the user's keywords representing dates and times, a markdown graphic is displayed, showing the event on their calendar. After creating the event, the user may invite other Microsoft users or groups to attend the event. By default, a 30 mins meeting is set up which can then be edited from Microsoft outlook if neededWith the Google Forms Survey skill, you can conduct a survey about the services you provide as part of the interaction with the Digital Person. With this Skill, you can create a Google Form survey about the services they provide as part of the interaction with the Digital Person. If the user wishes to skip a non-required question, they may say "skip" or “next”. When a user requests to repeat a question, both the question and the options are repeated.

The survey is triggered when the user requests the survey form by saying:

• start survey

• survey

• begin Survey

• start quiz

• begin quiz

• submit feedback

• share feedback

Google Forms Survey Skill as Base Conversation

The Google Forms Survey Skill is available as an intent matching skill or can also be used as a base conversation, this will start the survey immediately after the Welcome message.

Creating a Google Form

The Google form created must be in a certain format for the Digital Person to be able to read out the questions coherently and also to accept the answers from the users hence we support only 4 types of questions.

Supported form questions:

• Short Answer - When you expect a short answer to the question. Within this question type the additional Description and Response Validation options are not supported:

• Paragraph - When you expect a longer answer for to the question.

• Multiple Choice - When you want to give the user limited options to choose from. These are easier to analyze afterward as these standardize the answer format with no room for interpretation.

• Checkboxes - Answers can be ticked. One or more answers are ticked, including “Other” for short answers.

• Linear Scale - When you want to collect the user’s opinion numerically on a scale. You can change the scale, but it must start with either a 0 or a 1, and can go up to 10.
  Liner scale questions must include label descriptions identifying the extremes:

Adding an image and description to a question

• Title and Description - These add a section to your form on the current page, however, only the description will be rendered by the skill

• Sections - These add a section title and also put the section on anew page of the form, however, the DP ignores the sections, and the questions will be rendered continuously in the interaction

Adding images to options

Currently, images in options are not displayed for either the Web widget and Default UI, even if the Survey Skill sends the information. To display images as options, you should either implement a custom UI or contact your customer representative to request a  beta version of web widget that does have images enabled.  Soul Machines expects to have image support available in the default web widget in early Q1 2022.
