  • 1.  How do I obtain a worskpace ID?

    Posted Mon August 08, 2022 10:15 AM
    I am trying to integrate the Watson Assistant using a botkit middleware - GitHub - watson-developer-cloud/botkit-middleware: A middleware to connect Watson Conversation Service to different chat channels using Botkit

    GitHub - watson-developer-cloud/botkit-middleware: A middleware to connect Watson Conversation Service to different chat channels using Botkit
    This middleware plugin for Botkit allows developers to easily integrate a Watson Assistant workspace with multiple social channels like Slack, Facebook, and Twilio. Customers can have simultaneous, independent conversations with a single workspace through different channels. Table of Contents Automatically manages context in multi-turn conversations to keep track of where the user left off in the conversation.

    My problem is that the middleware requires a workspace ID. Apparently this was used in v1 but I am not finding any steps on how to convert the Watson Assistant to V1 and how to obtain a workspace ID. If I revert the bot to classic experience then go to skills and select the 3 dots, I don't see a View API Details like the docs say. What am I missing here?

    In the new experience, you can find the Workspace ID by going to the Assistant Settings (the small gear icon on the lower right of your browser UI), and grabbing the Assistant ID.

    Hi Daniel,

    I understand that Matthew is looking for a (legacy) workspace ID that he could use with V1 API, not V2. I'll let him explain more as needed, but the Assistant id won't do for the purposes of using botkit-middleware.

    Thanks,

    -Patricia

    Patricia is right, the botkit middleware seems to only be setup for v1. I have gone through the docs on the IBM pages seems to be slightly outdated. It indicates that on you can create a v1 bot then click skills > Select a Skill > Go to View API Details. The only way I can figure how to revert Watson back to v1 is to go to the classic experience. When I create a skill and select View API Details, I still do not see a Workspace ID.
