    When it comes to creating a bot using Amazon Lex, I've discovered that there are two different approaches available: through the AWS console or by utilizing the AWS CLI (using serverless applications). Now, in regard to the Genesys Dialog Engine, I'm wondering if there is a similar logic to create a bot using these two alternatives.

    I'm asking this question because I need to integrate an external API, such as a weather API for example. However, while examining the Genesys architecture, I couldn't find any feature or location to incorporate external resources.

    Hi @ayoub Outside of using Architect, our CX as Code resources would be the other recommended method for creating architect flows including bot flows.

    We have a blueprint that demonstrates using CX as Code to create a bot flow. I'm linking to the folder dealing with flows, but the entirety of the blueprint may be helpful as well. https://github.com/GenesysCloudBlueprints/deploy-webchat-chatbot-with-lambda-blueprint/tree/main/blueprint/terraform/modules/flows

    About integrating external APIs, you may be looking for the web services data actions integration. This is an integration that supports data actions for third-party APIs. You can call such a custom data action within an Architect flow.
