Equivalent to AI assistant user_response type for WxO Agents?

  • 1.  Equivalent to AI assistant user_response type for WxO Agents?

    Posted 8 days ago

    With a Wx Assistant, it's possible (from an assistant flow) to send a "userDefinedResponse" to an Assistant chat window. This provides a convoluted but useful way to make a flow trigger a context-rich client-side action through instance.on({type: 'userDefinedResponse', handler: handlerFn}).
    I would like to do the same with a WxO AI agent. The doc (https://developer.watson-orchestrate.ibm.com/agents/integrate_agents) hints that the embedded Agent chat can handle events in a way that's fairly similar to an Assistant chat. 

    What I am not seeing is how to send a user defined response from an Agent (or from a tool/agentic flow). Is what I am trying to do currently possible?
