How do I improve entity recognition for a custom intent in Dialogflow?
Asked on Nov 11, 2025
Answer
Improving entity recognition in Dialogflow involves refining your training data and adjusting entity definitions to better capture user inputs. This can be done by enhancing the training phrases and ensuring that your entities are well-defined and tested.
- Open your Dialogflow console and select the agent you want to work on.
- Navigate to Intents and choose the specific intent you wish to improve.
- Under "Training Phrases," add diverse examples that include variations of how users might express the entities.
- Go to "Entities" and ensure each entity is defined with synonyms and possible values that users might use.
- Test the intent with different user inputs in the "Try it now" section to see how well entities are recognized.
Additional Comment:
- Consider using composite entities if your entities are complex or nested.
- Regularly review and update your training data based on real user interactions to improve accuracy.
- Utilize Dialogflow's built-in analytics to identify common misrecognitions and adjust accordingly.
