Sequential Slot Prompting in Agent Studio Custom Plugin

I am currently working in Agent Studio to create custom plugins and have implemented user input using slots. However, I am encountering an issue where all slot-related questions are presented to the user simultaneously.

My requirement is to have the questions asked in a sequential manner — that is, the system should prompt the first question, wait for the user’s response, and then proceed to ask the next question, and so on.

Could you please advise how to configure or design the slots so that they are prompted one at a time instead of all at once?

for the reference I have attached the screenshot as well.

Hey ​@kapilesh.sharma The only way to ask for slots one at a time would be by adding a decision policy for each step, so each decision policy will have this slot as required, but it's not really a good practice to do that. The reason it's not good to do what you're saying is because the user experience is going to be really slow, every time you enter a slot, it's going to make a new LLM call, which is going to take maybe five seconds for each time it tries to collect a new slot. So I personally wouldn't recommend that, but if that's the requirement that you have, that is the only way to do it at this time. Usually, you want to have the user enter as much information as they can in the first pass so they don't have to go through these hoops 


hello Kevin,

so, in the conversation process we have tried to create the decision policy after each content block. but still its showing all the questions at once. 

I have attached the screenshot of the configuration i did.

booking_owner is the slot for 1 Content activity.

@kapilesh.sharma Are you adding the slot as required in the policy block?
