Using console
Hello everyone
I have just started using Voice flow and I have a lot of custom code that I am running, Is there any sort of console that shows what the bot is doing under the hood? If so is there a way of adding print statements for debug?
Thank you very much!

Yes, there is a way to understand what your bot is doing under the hood. When you test your assistant within Voiceflow, you can run a simulation and converse with the assistant while concurrently evaluating performance statistics like intent confidence scores. This visualization of the assistant conversation enables streamlined troubleshooting and improved debugging strategies.
Moreover, you can leverage our Dialog API, which sends input to your Voiceflow project and returns a response based on the design. After processing your request, the Dialog Manager API will respond with an array of "traces" which are pieces of the overall response from the project. These traces can help you understand the bot's responses and actions.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the following documents:
- Testing your assistant
- Voiceflow Dialog API
- Voiceflow API Reference
Please note that while you can't add print statements directly in Voiceflow, the traces from the Dialog API can serve a similar purpose for debugging.
