Abstract

Method and system are provided for generating a chatbot interface for an application programming interface (API) that interacts with networked applications. The method may include: receiving as an input a definition document for an API that interacts with networked applications and parsing the definition document to identify intents and entities and obtain examples of the identified intents and entities. The method may convert the definition document to a chatbot data structure including: extracting the intents and entities and their relationship to objects and fields in the API from the definition document; and training the chatbot data structure with the example intents and entities to generate a conversation specification in the chatbot data structure. The method may then generate a chatbot interface for the API.
