Fix Unwanted Bot Answers

Learn how to prevent unwanted bot answers by using specific training phrases and adjusting intents for better matches.

What should I do if my bot returns unwanted answers?

If your bot is returning unwanted answers, it might be due to short or generic training phrases. These can lead to partial matches that aren't relevant. To fix this, use more specific and longer phrases in your training phrases and intents.

Additionally, if a particular question isn't matching as expected, you can adjust the training phrases or create a new answer specifically designed to match that question. This ensures that the bot provides the most relevant response to user queries.
