For details about using this service, see Getting started with Watson Assistance.

Note: if you build your own Watson chatbot, update the apikey variable with your own Watson Assistant API information. Set environment variables as recommended in Authentication information and then:

authenticator = IAMAuthenticator('{apikey}')
assistant = AssistantV2(
    version='{version}',
    authenticator=authenticator
)

Replace {apikey} and {url} with your service credentials.

curl -X {request_method} -u "apikey:{apikey}" "{url}/v2/{method}"

For example:

curl -X POST -u "apikey:{apikey}" --header "Content-Type:application/json" --data "{\"input\": {\"text\": \"Hello\"}}" "{url}/v2/assistants/{assistant_id}/message?version=2021-06-14"
