How to invoke another intent within the responseBuilder WITHOUT using .addDelegateDirective or .addElicitSlotDirective

Question

I have the following return statement:

return input.responseBuilder
  .speak(speakOutput)
  .addDelegateDirective(previousIntent)
  .getResponse();

I don't want to use Dialog.Delegate (addDelegateDirective) since I need to have access to the ssml output for my repeat intent.

I know you can use addElicitSlotDirective but you need to pass a slotToElicit - which is not what I want. I just need to have a speakOutput and then send the user to another intent. Is there a way to do that?

Answer 1

So what you want to do is just pass some data between intents - you can use SessionAttributes in that case.
