Modify the date formats collected by the chatbot thanks to Vizir webhooks

Learn how to modify a date attribute

You will certainly need to retrieve dates in one of your chatbot’s action skills.

You will get these dates in different formats, and often you will have to transform this format to be compatible with the tool you will connect your chatbot to via API.

For example, when collecting a date via an NLP entity, it will be stored as follows: 2020-10-02-18:03:55. A very special format, you will agree. Salesforce for example will ask you for a date format like DD/MM/YYYY.

This little home-made date transformation API will allow you to transform any date format into any date format.

So you can sleep on your two ears.
