Can you tell me, How can I clone an assistant and change the language? Or should I initiate the entire process of creating the assistant?

To clone an assistant and change its language in Voiceflow, you can follow these steps:
1. Clone the Assistant: On your dashboard, hover over the assistant you want to clone to access the options menu. Click on 'Copy Clone Link' to create a snapshot of your assistant. This will not overwrite your previous assistant; it's a snapshot of the current version.
2. Create a New Assistant with the Clone: Paste the clone link into your browser. This will generate a new assistant in your workspace that is an exact copy of the original assistant.
3. Change the Language of the New Assistant: Unfortunately, you cannot directly change the language of an existing assistant in Voiceflow. You will need to create a new assistant with the desired language. However, you can copy and paste the design content from the cloned assistant to the new one.
4. Create a New Assistant in the Desired Language: Click on 'New Assistant' at the top right of your workspace. In the modal window that appears, you will be prompted to name your assistant and select the modality (chat or voice). Here, you can also select the language for your assistant.
5. Copy the Design Content: Once your new assistant is created, you can copy the design content from the cloned assistant over to the new one. This will allow you to maintain the same conversational flow and design while changing the language.
Remember, the language you select will affect the designing, building, and deployment of the conversation. Different languages may have access to different steps, design aspects, and features according to their native functionality.
Please note that not all languages may perform consistently with the Natural Language Understanding (NLU) on Voiceflow. You can find a list of supported languages in the 'Selecting Language' document in the Voiceflow documentation.
