Skill - Wake Word
Skill Type
PRE-POST PROCESS
Overview
The wake word skill allows you to set up a phrase that will trigger the Digital Person to begin participating in the conversation and act on the user's request. This request will be forwarded to the appropriate Skill for processing. When used together with the Event Scheduling Skill the Wake Word skill is very useful.
When a Digital Person is in a Microsoft Teams meeting they treat everything they hear like a request, resulting in interruptions. Wake words allow them to respond to requests only if they are directed to them, otherwise, they remain in the background.

| The Digital Person's response indicating that they are ready for the request Example: How may I help you? |
WHAT THE DP SAYS WHEN IT IS ASKED TO GO TO SLEEP |
| This is what the digital person will say when asked to go to sleep. Can be left blank and the default will be “OK”. |
INITIAL STATE (WHEN THE DP FIRST STARTS) |
| This is the state the digital person will be in when it starts up. Note: It does allow the Welcome message to go through, so if there is a Welcome greeting configured it will say it then go to sleep |
DEFAULT STATE (WHAT THE DP RETURNS TO AFTER HANDLING A REQUEST) |
| This is the state the Digital Person will return to at the end of the conversation after fulfilling a request (i.e. a single turn request, or the conclusion of a multi-turn request). |
