put_intent#
- LexModelBuildingService.Client.put_intent(**kwargs)#
Creates an intent or replaces an existing intent.
To define the interaction between the user and your bot, you use one or more intents. For a pizza ordering bot, for example, you would create an
OrderPizzaintent.To create an intent or replace an existing intent, you must provide the following:
Intent name. For example,
OrderPizza.Sample utterances. For example, “Can I order a pizza, please.” and “I want to order a pizza.”
Information to be gathered. You specify slot types for the information that your bot will request from the user. You can specify standard slot types, such as a date or a time, or custom slot types such as the size and crust of a pizza.
How the intent will be fulfilled. You can provide a Lambda function or configure the intent to return the intent information to the client application. If you use a Lambda function, when all of the intent information is available, Amazon Lex invokes your Lambda function. If you configure your intent to return the intent information to the client application.
You can specify other optional information in the request, such as:
A confirmation prompt to ask the user to confirm an intent. For example, “Shall I order your pizza?”
A conclusion statement to send to the user after the intent has been fulfilled. For example, “I placed your pizza order.”
A follow-up prompt that asks the user for additional activity. For example, asking “Do you want to order a drink with your pizza?”
If you specify an existing intent name to update the intent, Amazon Lex replaces the values in the
$LATESTversion of the intent with the values in the request. Amazon Lex removes fields that you don’t provide in the request. If you don’t specify the required fields, Amazon Lex throws an exception. When you update the$LATESTversion of an intent, thestatusfield of any bot that uses the$LATESTversion of the intent is set toNOT_BUILT.For more information, see how-it-works.
This operation requires permissions for the
lex:PutIntentaction.See also: AWS API Documentation

A response card. Amazon Lex uses this prompt at runtime, in the
PostTextAPI response. It substitutes session attributes and slot values for placeholders in the response card. For more information, see ex-resp-card.
priority (integer) –
Directs Amazon Lex the order in which to elicit this slot value from the user. For example, if the intent has two slots with priorities 1 and 2, AWS Amazon Lex first elicits a value for the slot with priority 1.
If multiple slots share the same priority, the order in which Amazon Lex elicits values is arbitrary.

For example, if the slot name is “full_name”, obfuscated values are replaced with “{full_name}”. For more information, see Slot Obfuscation.
defaultValueSpec (dict) –
A list of default values for the slot. Default values are used when Amazon Lex hasn’t determined a value for a slot. You can specify default values from context variables, session attributes, and defined values.
defaultValueList (list) – [REQUIRED]
The default values for a slot. You can specify more than one default. For example, you can specify a default value to use from a matching context variable, a session attribute, or a fixed value.
The default value chosen is selected based on the order that you specify them in the list. For example, if you specify a context variable and a fixed value in that order, Amazon Lex uses the context variable if it is available, else it uses the fixed value.
(dict) –
A default value for a slot.
defaultValue (string) – [REQUIRED]
The default value for the slot. You can specify one of the following:
#context-name.slot-name- The slot value “slot-name” in the context “context-name.”{attribute}- The slot value of the session attribute “attribute.”'value'- The discrete value “value.”
