Build and Publish bot

Build and Publish process is used to train the bot on conversations and Skills designed on Luma VA. It ensures that Luma VA understands the user request and processes it as requested.

The Build and Publish process allows publishing any new changes made to Skills or Attributes, and make them available to the Bot. The activity must be run in the following scenarios:

1. Creation of a Skill

2. Changes to User Phrases on Skills

3. New Attribute (global) created

4. Value, Synonym, and Regex Changes to an Attribute 

5. Updates to Small Talk and System Skill

6. Change the Skill status to Active or Inactive  

Bot prompts the administrator when a Build and Publish run is required. A Red dot next to the Build and Publish option indicates that there are one or more items Pending for Publish

The following message banner also appears on the Build and Publish page, in case there are items awaiting Publishing.
