Amazon Lex Model Building Service

2019/12/19 - Amazon Lex Model Building Service - 6 updated api methods

Changes  Amazon Lex now supports conversation logs and slot obfuscation.

CreateIntentVersion (updated) Link ¶
Changes (response)
{'slots': {'obfuscationSetting': 'NONE | DEFAULT_OBFUSCATION'}}

Creates a new version of an intent based on the $LATEST version of the intent. If the $LATEST version of this intent hasn't changed since you last updated it, Amazon Lex doesn't create a new version. It returns the last version you created.

Note

You can update only the $LATEST version of the intent. You can't update the numbered versions that you create with the CreateIntentVersion operation.

When you create a version of an intent, Amazon Lex sets the version to 1. Subsequent versions increment by 1. For more information, see versioning-intro .

This operation requires permissions to perform the lex:CreateIntentVersion action.

Request Syntax

client.create_intent_version(
    name='string',
    checksum='string'
)
type name

string

param name

[REQUIRED]

The name of the intent that you want to create a new version of. The name is case sensitive.

type checksum

string

param checksum

Checksum of the $LATEST version of the intent that should be used to create the new version. If you specify a checksum and the $LATEST version of the intent has a different checksum, Amazon Lex returns a PreconditionFailedException exception and doesn't publish a new version. If you don't specify a checksum, Amazon Lex publishes the $LATEST version.

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 OrderPizza intent.

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 $LATEST version 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 $LATEST version of an intent, the status field of any bot that uses the $LATEST version of the intent is set to NOT_BUILT .

For more information, see how-it-works .

This operation requires permissions for the lex:PutIntent action.

type name

string

param name

[REQUIRED]

The name of the intent. The name is not case sensitive.

The name can't match a built-in intent name, or a built-in intent name with "AMAZON." removed. For example, because there is a built-in intent called AMAZON.HelpIntent , you can't create a custom intent called HelpIntent .

For a list of built-in intents, see Standard Built-in Intents in the Alexa Skills Kit .

type description

string

param description

A description of the intent.

type slots

list

param slots

An array of intent slots. At runtime, Amazon Lex elicits required slot values from the user using prompts defined in the slots. For more information, see how-it-works .

          The message object that provides the message text and its type.

          • contentType (string) -- [REQUIRED]

            The content type of the message string.

          • content (string) -- [REQUIRED]

            The text of the message.

          • groupNumber (integer) --

            Identifies the message group that the message belongs to. When a group is assigned to a message, Amazon Lex returns one message from each group in the response.

      • maxAttempts (integer) -- [REQUIRED]

        The number of times to prompt the user for information.

      • responseCard (string) --

    • priority (integer) --

      Directs 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 Lex first elicits a value for the slot with priority 1.

      If multiple slots share the same priority, the order in which Lex elicits values is arbitrary.

    • sampleUtterances (list) --

      If you know a specific pattern with which users might respond to an Amazon Lex request for a slot value, you can provide those utterances to improve accuracy. This is optional. In most cases, Amazon Lex is capable of understanding user utterances.

      • (string) --

    • responseCard (string) --

      A set of possible responses for the slot type used by text-based clients. A user chooses an option from the response card, instead of using text to reply.

    • obfuscationSetting (string) --

      Determines whether a slot is obfuscated in conversation logs and stored utterances. When you obfuscate a slot, the value is replaced by the slot name in curly braces ({}). For example, if the slot name is "full_name", obfuscated values are replaced with "{full_name}". For more information, see Slot Obfuscation .

type sampleUtterances

list

param sampleUtterances

An array of utterances (strings) that a user might say to signal the intent. For example, "I want {PizzaSize} pizza", "Order {Quantity} {PizzaSize} pizzas".

In each utterance, a slot name is enclosed in curly braces.

  • (string) --

type confirmationPrompt

dict

param confirmationPrompt

Prompts the user to confirm the intent. This question should have a yes or no answer.

    The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Lambda function.

  • messageVersion (string) -- [REQUIRED]

    The version of the request-response that you want Amazon Lex to use to invoke your Lambda function. For more information, see using-lambda .

type fulfillmentActivity

dict

param fulfillmentActivity

Required. Describes how the intent is fulfilled. For example, after a user provides all of the information for a pizza order, fulfillmentActivity defines how the bot places an order with a local pizza store.

You might configure Amazon Lex to return all of the intent information to the client application, or direct it to invoke a Lambda function that can process the intent (for example, place an order with a pizzeria).
