Hello,
Is there a script that I can use in a topic to get the name of this current topic and save it in a variable?
Thank you!

Hi there,
Yes and no. There's no actual vaSystem property for this directly. Though, there's a workaround 🙂
(function execute() {
return JSON.parse(vaVars._topic_current).name;
})()
If my answer helped you in any way, please then mark it as helpful.

Hello,
thanks for your post that's helps me 🙂
Where I can find details on vaVars differents fonction like vaVars._topic_current or vaSystem.switchTopic()
Do you have some documentation with theses commands ?

Hi there,
Not sure what you are asking, though maybe this helps:
50+ (Un)documented Virtual Agent variables (vaInputs, vaVars, vaContext, vaSystem)
