Hands-On Python Deep Learning for the Web

Step 2 – Creating a new agent

We will now create a Dialogflow agent. In terms of Dialogflow, an agent is another name for a chatbot. It is the agent that receives, processes, and responds to all input provided by the user.

Click on the Create Agent button and fill in the required information about the agent to your liking, which includes the agent's name, the default language, the timezone, and the Google project name.

If you haven't used GCP prior to this step, you'll have to create a project. We've discussed the creation of GCP projects in Chapter 6, Deep Learning on Google Cloud Platform Using Python. Alternatively, you can simply let GCP automatically create a new project for you when creating the agent.
