# Bot-to-Bot Direct Transfer in Taalk AI Agent

## In Taalk.ai, you can now connect one AI Agent (bot) directly to another AI Agent within your environment. This allows for smooth bot-to-bot transfers without routing through a live agent or external system. This feature is ideal for creating a modular AI experience, where each bot focuses on a specific area, and customers are guided to the right place with zero human intervention.

#### **Overview**

A common use case is when your IVR Bot or general-purpose assistant needs to hand off to a specialized bot for a specific function — for example:

- **IVR Bot →  Lead Bot**
- **General FAQ Bot → Billing Bot**
- **Qualification Bot → Scheduling Bot**

With the new **Direct Transfer** capability, you can make this handoff seamlessly by using the target bot’s Agent ID.

---

#### **Example Scenario**

**Customer says:**

> “I want to book a move”

> “I need my piano moved”

> “I’d like to get a quote”

**IVR Bot action:**

Transfers the call/chat directly to your ** Lead Bot**, which is specialized for creating quotes and capturing leads.

---

#### **How to Configure Bot-to-Bot Direct Transfer**

1. **Open the AI Agent settings** for your starting bot (the one initiating the transfer).
2. Navigate to the **Call Transfer Settings** section.
3. Under **Transfer Type**, choose the desired transfer method (e.g., **Warm Transfer with Nothing Pressed**).
4. In **Transfer the Call to**, enter:

 

```
agent:<id>
```

1. where <id> is the **Agent ID** of the target bot you want to connect to. 
   
   Example:

```
agent:6894e704ce9d7d9f3
```

Save your changes.

You and find the Agent ID at the URL of your \`agent /agents/689919131b0d0b9778e97531\`

 

**Tip:** This can be triggered by a [Transfer Magic Keyword](https://knowledge.taalk.ai/scripting?hsLang=en) and is also compatible with **Dynamic Transfer**.

---

#### **How It Works**

- When the transfer trigger is met (via intent, keyword, or decision node), the current bot will **immediately connect** the session to the target AI Agent.
- The target AI Agent will **come online instantly**, ready to continue the conversation without losing context of the channel.

---

#### **Notes & Best Practices**

- Ensure you have access rights to the target AI Agent.
- The Agent ID can be found in the target bot’s settings.
- Use clear handoff triggers so customers understand they are being transferred.
- Consider passing brief context to the second bot (e.g., “Customer is asking for a moving quote”) via warm whisper or pre-set parameters, if applicable.
