Dialogflow fulfillment not responding to keywords

Question

I am trying to make sense of how the fulfillment works, and I cannot get the responses from the if statements to work. Whenever I write the keyword, the default response I get is Not available. The webhook for the intent is enabled, the entity is 'hooked' in the intent as well. What am I missing here?

const functions = require('firebase-functions');
const { dialogflow } = require('actions-on-google');
const app = dialogflow();

const WELCOME_INTENT = 'Default Welcome Intent';
const USER_MESSAGE_ENTITY = 'UserMessage';

app.intent(WELCOME_INTENT, (conv) => {
  const userMessage = conv.parameters(USER_MESSAGE_ENTITY).toLowerCase();
  if (userMessage == 'hey') {
    conv.ask('Hey there');
  } else if (userMessage == 'greetings') {
    conv.ask('Greetings, how are you');
  } else if (userMessage == 'evening') {
    conv.ask('Good evening');
  }
});

exports.dialogflowFirebaseFulfillment = functions.https.onRequest(app);

{
  "responseId": "8499a8f2-b570-4fb2-9f3c-262bd03db01e-c4f60134",

I don't know where you got conv.parameters(USER_MESSAGE_ENTITY).

The parameters of the intent are accessible as a second function argument. It is going to be a map:

app.intent(WELCOME_INTENT, (conv, params) => {
  const userMessage = params[USER_MESSAGE_ENTITY].toLowerCase();
  // ...
})
