Hosted versus open source CES Messenger Web Component

Google Cloud Build with AI Conversational Agents (Dialogflow CX)

I’m looking into the differences between the open source CES Messenger Web Component for the new Gemini Enterprise for Customer Experience. And the hosted version that is being provided in the Deploy steps of a new Agent.

There is a hosted version:
https://www.gstatic.com/ces-console/fast/chat-messenger/prod/v1.13/chat-messenger.js

The hosted version does not have the same config support as the specs listed on the Github resource.
The hosted version also have a few other Rich Message Templates (fex. the Product Carousel) that are not available on Github.

Are these supposed to be in sync. Or is it a separate changelog for the hosted version (now on v1.13).

Thanks for any insight into this.

Hi @SimenHansen The hosted CES Messenger script and the open-source GitHub component are not necessarily kept fully in sync; the hosted version can include additional templates, configuration changes, or newer features with its own release cycle, so differences in config support and rich message types are expected and they may follow separate changelogs.

Thanks @a_aleinikov!

Are there a public changelog for the hosted version?
So that I can keep track of when to update the js-file version in my apps.

Also I’m specifically now looking to extend/manipulate the new Widget Tool “PRODUCT_CAROUSEL” template. Is there any change that these built-in widgets are coming to the open source library?
