The daily update is a common element of organisational communication that keeps teams aligned, engaged and on the same page. They can take many forms, from email or app notifications to brief meetings or platforms like tchop ™. While the daily update is private and only shared with team members, it’s an important way for teams to collect feedback and insights that help them improve their performance.
To enable daily updates in your Action, set one of your Action’s intents as the triggering intent for this feature. Then add a prompt for users to subscribe to your daily updates. This prompt can be given mid-conversation or as a suggestion chip when the user exits your Action successfully. Once the user has subscribed to your daily updates, they receive Assistant notifications on their device at their scheduled time each day.
Providing meaningful content in your daily updates is the best way to keep users on board with your Action. Prompting them to subscribe too often, or to subscriptions that provide identical content every day, can cause confusion and discourage users from using your Action again. Make sure to only offer this prompt once the user has demonstrated that they’d be interested in your daily updates. Also, don’t repeat the prompt within the same conversation, as it will feel too spammy and can quickly degrade the user experience. If you’d like to personalize the user’s daily updates, you can add custom parameters when they register their daily updates. These can then be referenced when fulfilling the intent, to display information relevant to that specific user.
