Dialogflow Show welcome text without user action

I am trying to show welcome text when user initiates the chat i.e. without any action from user. How to achieve this?

I tried NPM dialog flow or @google-cloud/dialogflow to detect intent to trigger the intent using node.js. It is sending the query and showing the fullfillment text in console but not on updating the UI like when user interact with bot.

Thanks.

If you're using Actions on Google, then your welcome Intent will be called when your Action is first invoked. The user wouldn't say anything besides "talk to action name".

Using the Actions on Google test emulator, this is provided as a button.

If you're using the Dialogflow tester on the right side of Dialogflow, you need to enter one of the invocation phrases for the Welcome Intent, but these phrases aren't typically used as part of the Action itself.
