TwiML™ Voice: <VirtualAgent>


(warning)

Warning

This TwiML Verb is not currently available when using Twilio Regions Ireland (IE1) or Australia (AU1). This is currently only supported with the default US1 region. A full list of unsupported products and features with Twilio Regions is documented here.

(information)

The <VirtualAgent> TwiML noun, which nests inside a <Connect> verb, allows you to connect callers to a Google Dialogflow VirtualAgent. <VirtualAgent> currently supports Dialogflow CX.

This document outlines the steps to integrate your Dialogflow agents with Twilio and provides links to the specific documentation for working with <VirtualAgent> and Dialogflow CX agents.

To use <VirtualAgent>, you must connect your Dialogflow agent to Twilio using a Twilio One-click telephony integration in the Google Dialogflow cloud console. The One-click process is different for Dialogflow CX, so please see the sections below on how to complete the integration steps.

Once you've completed those integration steps, Twilio will add a Dialogflow CX Connector(link takes you to an external page) and create a new Studio Flow containing a Connect Virtual Agent Widget that is connected to your selected Dialogflow agent.

You can review all of your Dialogflow CX connections in your Installed Twilio Marketplace Add-Ons in the Twilio Console.(link takes you to an external page)
