Passing user provided value from one intent to other intent in Dialogflow

Team, In DialogFlow, I getting a value from the user in intent A; (let's say it's the employee ID). In next Intent B, I want to use the Employee ID (collected in previous intent A) and provide a response and execute a webhook.

I am able to collect the value in Intent A and display in same intent. When tried to pass it to another Intent, I am failing miserably.

Appreciate ayny help in this regard.

Tnx Sathiya

You will need to use contexts to store the parameters and access these parameters through the context in the other intent.

Check out my full answer here

{  
  "fulfillmentText":"This is a text response",
  "fulfillmentMessages":[  ],
  "source":"example.com",
  "payload":{  
    "google":{  },
    "facebook":{  },
    "slack":{  }
  },
  "outputContexts":[  
    {  
      "name":"<Context Name>",
      "lifespanCount":5,
      "parameters":{  
        "<param name>":"<param value>"
      }
    }
  ],
  "followupEventInput":{  }
}

from NodeJS code
save in first Intent

let param1 = [];
let param2 = {};
let ctx = {'name': '<context name>', 'lifespan': 5, 'parameters': {'param1':param1, 'param2': param2}};
agent.setContext(ctx);

Access in other Intent as

let params = agent.getContext("<context name>").parameters;
let param1 = params.param1;
let param2 = params.param2;
