Defaults
Defaults determine your Assistant's behavior in three different situations:
assistant_initiation: the assistant is responsible for beginning a conversation, only used for an inbound phone callfallback: the natural language router cannot map human input to an existing taskcollect: the assistant needs to know which task to use if there is a failure when collecting data
All defaults should point to one of the following:
- an existing task in the format
"task://hello-world" - a publically accessible URL that contains the desired set of actions in the format
"https://myapp.com/on_failure"
All Autopilot REST API resources use the following base URL:
https://autopilot.twilio.com/v1/
Example Defaults data
{ "defaults": { "assistant_initiation": "task://hello_world", "fallback": "task://hello_world", "collect": { "validate_on_failure": "task://hello_world" } } }
