User events

Alan AI emits several types of events triggered by users’ interactions with the Agentic Interface. You can listen to these events with the onUserEvent callback.

Note

The user statistics is updated after the user dialog session is closed.

Types of events

Web

Event name	Description
buttonClicked	Fired when the user clicks the Agentic Interface button in the app
buttonReady	Fired when Alan AI connects to the Agentic Interface project and is ready to listen to the user’s input
firstActivate	Fired when the user activates the Agentic Interface for the first time during the dialog session
firstClick	Fired when the user clicks the Agentic Interface button for the first time during the dialog session
micAllowed	Fired when the user allows access to the microphone
micPermissionPrompt	Fired when a prompt to allow access to the microphone is displayed
popupCloseClicked	Fired when the user clicks the close icon in the Alan AI button popup
recognized	Fired during and upon the user’s input recognition
showPopup	Fired when a popup next to the Agentic Interface button is displayed

In the example below, the Agentic Interface listens to the firstActivate event and, if the last interaction with the user occurred earlier than one day ago, plays a greeting to the user.

Dialog script

function diffFrom(ts, units) {
    let last = DateTime.fromMillis(ts);
    let now  = DateTime.local();
    console.log(`now.diff(last): ${now.diff(last)}`);
    console.log(`units: ${units}, now.diff(last).as(units): ${now.diff(last).as(units)}`);
    return now.diff(last).as(units);
}

onUserEvent((p, e) => {
    console.info('event', JSON.stringify(e));
    if (e.event == 'firstActivate') {
        if (diffFrom(e.userInfo.lastInteractionTs, 'days') > 1) {
            p.play('Hi, I am Alan, your Agentic Interface. Ask any question or tell me what you would like to do');
        }
    }
});
