title: Using custom event(s) in Dialogflow to invoke an event via the detect intent API
body: <p>I am sending a request to the /query per the <a href="https://dialogflow.com/docs/events/custom-events" rel="nofollow noreferrer">documentation</a> with parameter names and parameter values. However I can not get any of the parameter slots to fill within the intent itself.</p>
  
  <p>Example Payload:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
          "contexts": ["member"],
              "event": {
                      "name": "memberLookup",
                      "parameters": {
                              "baseState": "az",
                              "occurrenceState": "ny"
                      },
                      "languageCode": "en-US"
              },
      "lang": "en",
      "sessionId": "1"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>}</p>
  
  <p>I am referencing in my parameters per the docs, i.e. <code>#memberLookup.baseState</code></p>
  
  <p>Response Snippet</p>
  
  <pre><code>    "result": {
      "source": "agent",
      "resolvedQuery": "memberLookup",
      "action": "",
      "actionIncomplete": true,
      "parameters": {
          "baseState": "",
          "occurrenceState": ""
      },
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Has anyone gotten this functionality to work? </p>
