S3 BUCKET LINK FOR THE CHATBOT : http://clouddiningconierge.s3-website-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/
Visit the link and chat with the bot. The initial response sent by the bot will be in your inbox or spam mail. This mail will be a verification mail, move the mail to inbox if in spam and verify your e-mail address by clicking on the link sent in the mail. After this step, refresh the page and chat with the bot one more time. You will now get a suggestion of resturants on your mail. NOTE: This process must be done for new E-mail ID. If the e-mail has been used before, verification is not needed, suggestion will be mailed directly. The bot only accepts future dates like tomorrow. (today, yesterday or any past date will not give results.)
Customer Service is a core service for a lot of businesses around the world and it is getting disrupted at the moment by Natural Language Processing-powered applications. In this assignmet we have implemented a serverless, microservice-driven web-based Dining Concierge chatbot that sends you restaurant suggestions given a set of preferences that you provide the chatbot with through conversation.
Chatbot validates the responses from user and based on this conversation, the LEX chatbot will identify the customer’s preferred ‘cuisine’. The chatbot will search through ElasticSearch to get random suggestions of restaurant IDs with this cuisine. The chatbot will also query the DynamoDB table with these restaurant IDs to find more information about the restaurants you want to suggest to your customers like name and address of the restaurant. The chatbot will filter the restaurants based on the Cuisine. After that the chatbot will send the suggestions to user via Email.
