# Archiving the Repo 

Dialogflow is now available as a [native integration](https://www.chatwoot.com/docs/product/channels/live-chat/integrations/dialogflow) in Chatwoot. So it is recommended to use it instead. 

Also, refer to [Chatwoot Implementation Samples](https://github.com/chatwoot/implementation-examples) for other examples.
