Add slot types and utterances to intents for supported languages in a flow

After you add supported languages to your bot flow, create slots, intents, slot types, and utterances in the default language. Then, add utterances for the supported languages. Before you can add utterances for supported languages, make sure that you choose the supported languages for the flow.

First add your intents, slot type values, and utterances in the default language and then add the localized slot type values and utterances in the alternate language versions. For more information, see Work with intents in a bot flow and Slots and slot types overview. When you switch to a supported language to add slot type values and utterances, the Localized Value column appears.
