Actions on Google: Name Psychic Sample

This sample demonstrates Actions on Google features for use on Google Assistant including permission requests for user information, surface transfer capabilities, user storage, SSML, unrecognized deep link fallbacks, and Google Maps Static API -- -- using the Java client library and deployed on App Engine.

Note that if the user is not verified, their information will never be saved across conversations and they will encounter a guest flow (requesting permission) each time.
