Daily update is a key organisational communication tool that fosters alignment and engagement by keeping teammates on the same page about company activities. It can take the form of email notifications, brief meetings, or a team communication platform like tchop(tm). Frequent daily updates help teams stay informed about ongoing projects and responsibilities, while also building stronger connections with each other.
Often, teams experiment with different forms before settling on one that fits their industry and work style. For example, some teams choose to conduct daily status reports during morning meetings. Others opt for a public weekly report that enables employees to reflect on their accomplishments and share ideas with each other. Regardless of the format, daily updates are typically delivered at a fixed time each day to establish a sense of routine and reliability.
To enable daily updates in your Action, configure one of its intents as a triggering intent and set the daily update option as the response for that intent. Add a dialogue to that conversation that prompts users to subscribe and collects their custom parameters (if configured). When you fulfill the daily update intent, reference the values provided by the user during registration in your daily update response. See the instructions below for details on how to do this, depending on whether you use Dialogflow or the Actions SDK.
Once your Action is ready, test it with a Google Assistant-enabled device. To do so, invoke your Action and tap the daily update button in the Assistant notification. Then follow the prompt to register for daily updates and confirm the subscription in the next interaction.
