Where can I find the required IDs for Watson Dialog Service?

When I create createDialog () have an id response dialogue but I do not know where this condigo client_id and conversation_id. Where can I get this IDs?I do not know where to find them.

DialogService service = new DialogService();
service.setUsernameAndPassword("{username}","{password}");

Map params = new HashMap();
params.put(DialogService.DIALOG_ID, "{dialog_id}");
params.put(DialogService.CLIENT_ID, {client_id});
params.put(DialogService.INPUT, "Hi Hello");
params.put(DialogService.CONVERSATION_ID, {conversation_id});

Conversation conversation = service.converse(params);
System.out.println(conversation);
Solution

  • According to the API reference documentation, a new conversation_id and client_id will be issued if they are not specified.

    So to start a conversation, you should omit the conversation_id and client_id parameters. They will be generated by the service and included in the response.

    Then to continue the conversation, you should specify the assigned conversation_id and client_id in subsequent requests.
