Description

I have a bot to get mobile number of user and send OTP, in webchat everything is fine but in skype, the skype gives the url to every mobile number which creates exception for the bot, but still it gets 3 entities, out which one is with conifdence 1 and have the correct/required values

{u'otp_value': [{u'suggested': True, u'confidence': 0.36571505592569503, u'type': u'value', u'value': u'>'}], u'contact_number': [{u'confidence': 1, u'type': u'value', u'value': u'+917809899999'}, {u'confidence': 1, u'type': u'value', u'value': u'+917809899999'}]}

but by default the wit processes the first entity and not the entity with highest confidence. How can i integrate this logic. I am using run_actions() to process the text received from the user

Start with the run_actions() entry point and trace how the returned entities are selected for processing. Reproduce the Skype payload shown in the issue and determine whether choosing the highest-confidence entity is configurable or requires a library change. Done means the behavior is clarified and, if appropriate, covered by a focused test or documented usage guidance.
