)
[REQUIRED]

Response Structure
(dict) --
recentIntentSummaryView (list) --
An array of information about the intents used in the session. The array can contain a maximum of three summaries. If more than three intents are used in the session, the recentIntentSummaryView operation contains information about the last three intents used.
If you set the checkpointLabelFilter parameter in the request, the array contains only the intents with the specified label.
(dict) --
Provides information about the state of an intent. You can use this information to get the current state of an intent so that you can process the intent, or so that you can return the intent to its previous state.
intentName (string) --
The name of the intent.
checkpointLabel (string) --
A user-defined label that identifies a particular intent. You can use this label to return to a previous intent.
Use the checkpointLabelFilter parameter of the GetSessionRequest operation to filter the intents returned by the operation to those with only the specified label.
slots (dict) --
Map of the slots that have been gathered and their values.
confirmationStatus (string) --
The status of the intent after the user responds to the confirmation prompt. If the user confirms the intent, Amazon Lex sets this field to Confirmed . If the user denies the intent, Amazon Lex sets this value to Denied . The possible values are:

The next action that the bot should take in its interaction with the user. The possible values are:
ConfirmIntent - The next action is asking the user if the intent is complete and ready to be fulfilled. This is a yes/no question such as "Place the order?"Close - Indicates that the there will not be a response from the user. For example, the statement "Your order has been placed" does not require a response.ElicitIntent - The next action is to determine the intent that the user wants to fulfill.ElicitSlot - The next action is to elicit a slot value from the user.fulfillmentState (string) --
The fulfillment state of the intent. The possible values are:
Failed - The Lambda function associated with the intent failed to fulfill the intent.Fulfilled - The intent has fulfilled by the Lambda function associated with the intent.ReadyForFulfillment - All of the information necessary for the intent is present and the intent ready to be fulfilled by the client application.slotToElicit (string) --
The next slot to elicit from the user. If there is not slot to elicit, the field is blank.
sessionAttributes (dict) --
Map of key/value pairs representing the session-specific context information. It contains application information passed between Amazon Lex and a client application.
sessionId (string) --

dialogAction (dict) --
Describes the current state of the bot.
type (string) --
The next action that the bot should take in its interaction with the user. The possible values are:

For example, the statement "Your order has been placed" does not require a response.Delegate - The next action is determined by Amazon Lex.ElicitIntent - The next action is to determine the intent that the user wants to fulfill.ElicitSlot - The next action is to elicit a slot value from the user.intentName (string) --
The name of the intent.
slots (dict) --
Map of the slots that have been gathered and their values.
slotToElicit (string) --
The name of the slot that should be elicited from the user.
fulfillmentState (string) --
