Migration Services
Move Dialogflow ES virtual agents to Conversational Agents through a structured migration focused on stronger conversation control, generative AI, and reliability.
Why Conversational Agents?
Use flows, pages, routes, conditions, and event handlers to manage complex, multi-step conversations more reliably.
Combine controlled conversation flows with generative playbooks for flexible interactions without losing business-rule oversight.
Connect agents with approved data stores and enterprise information to provide more relevant and contextual responses.
Use test cases, environments, versions, validation, change history, security settings, and controlled deployment processes.
How We Migrate
Review intents, entities, contexts, parameters, events, fulfillment, knowledge sources, integrations, languages, environments, and usage.
Translate the existing experience into flows, pages, routes, forms, playbooks, data stores, webhooks, and reusable conversation components.
Move supported intents and entities, then rebuild contexts, parameters, responses, events, fulfillment, and conversation transitions.
Adapt webhooks, APIs, channels, authentication, telephony, analytics, and connected business systems for the target platform.
Validate complete conversations, regression scenarios, integrations, latency, fallback handling, and business outcomes before production release.
Why Codimite?
Codimite combines Google Cloud expertise, conversation design, application integration, generative AI, and structured testing.
Start Your MigrationComplete Agent Discovery. We identify active intents, contexts, entities, fulfillment logic, channel dependencies, fallback paths, and unused assets.
Conversation Architecture Redesign. We convert intent-driven interactions into clear flows, pages, routes, conditions, forms, playbooks, and escalation paths.
Fulfillment and Integration Migration. We update webhook contracts, session data, authentication, API calls, channel integrations, and downstream business processes.
Controlled Production Rollout. We reduce risk through automated tests, conversation comparison, pilot users, phased traffic, monitoring, and rollback planning.
Platform Comparison
Both platforms support virtual agents, but Conversational Agents provides stronger conversation orchestration and generative AI capabilities for complex use cases.
| Area | Dialogflow ES | Conversational Agents |
|---|---|---|
| Platform approach | Intent-based natural language understanding platform for smaller and simpler agents | Conversational AI platform combining structured flows, generative playbooks, and grounded data |
| Conversation structure | Intents act as the primary building blocks of each conversation turn | Flows and pages organize conversations into explicit, reusable states |
| Conversation control | Contexts control which intents can be matched during a session | Routes, conditions, events, forms, and page scope provide more precise control |
| Complex conversations | Suitable for relatively simple intent-led interactions | Designed for larger, multi-step, and branching conversational experiences |
| Generative AI | Primarily deterministic intent and response design | Supports generative playbooks alongside deterministic flows |
| Knowledge grounding | Knowledge connectors support selected document-based responses | Data stores and generative capabilities support grounded conversational answers |
| Intent design | Intents contain training phrases, parameters, contexts, events, responses, and fulfillment settings | Intents remain reusable while routing, fulfillment, and state logic are handled separately |
| Parameters | Parameters are defined within intents and can be stored in contexts | Intent parameters, page forms, and session parameters support structured data collection |
| Slot filling | Required intent parameters trigger prompts | Page forms collect required parameters with validation and reprompt handling |
| Fallback handling | Uses fallback intents | Uses no-match and no-input event handlers within the active flow or page |
| Follow-up intents | Provides predefined follow-up intent structures | Uses reusable intents and scoped routes for contextual follow-up behavior |
| Responses | Responses are commonly configured within matched intents | Fulfillment can be triggered from routes, events, pages, and webhook results |
| Webhooks | ES-specific webhook request and response formats | Updated webhook structures with fulfillment tags and session parameters |
| Conditional logic | Relies heavily on contexts and fulfillment code | Native conditional routes and state handlers support explicit branching logic |
| Testing | Provides console simulation and basic agent testing | Supports simulator testing, reusable test cases, validation, and regression testing |
| Environments | Supports versions and environments for deployment | Supports versions, environments, environment-specific webhooks, and controlled releases |
| Analytics | Provides agent interaction and intent-level analytics | Supports richer conversation analysis across flows, pages, routes, and agent behavior |
| Change management | Agent configuration and export-based management | Change history, validation, versions, environments, and structured development controls |
| Integrations | Supports ES-specific channel and telephony integrations | Supports Conversational Agents integrations, APIs, webhooks, and contact-center use cases |
| Security | Google Cloud IAM and Dialogflow ES security controls | IAM, security settings, data redaction, retention controls, auditability, and Google Cloud governance |
| Best suited for | Smaller FAQ bots and straightforward intent-based interactions | Complex customer journeys, service automation, contact centers, and generative conversational applications |
FAQs
Codimite can migrate intents, training phrases, entities, parameters, fulfillment logic, responses, events, integrations, environments, knowledge workflows, and connected applications.
Not completely. Selected intents, training phrases, parameters, and custom entities may be transferred, but contexts, fulfillment, conversation paths, fallback behavior, and integrations usually require manual redesign.
Contexts are redesigned using flows, pages, routes, conditions, forms, and session parameters. Intent training phrases may be reused, while required parameters are rebuilt as structured form fields with prompts and validation.
Existing business logic may remain reusable, but webhook formats, authentication, parameters, responses, error handling, telephony, channels, and application APIs often require updates.
Yes. Generative playbooks, grounded data stores, and flexible responses can be added to suitable interactions, while transactional and business-critical journeys remain controlled through deterministic flows.
We test intent matching, parameter collection, responses, webhook calls, fallback handling, integrations, latency, complete conversation paths, and business outcomes before production cutover.
Assess your intents, contexts, fulfillment, integrations, and customer journeys to build a practical Conversational Agents migration roadmap.
