Class Intent

    • Method Detail

      • name

        public final String name()

        The name of the intent.

        Returns:
        The name of the intent.
      • hasSlots

        public final boolean hasSlots()
        For responses, this returns true if the service returned a value for the Slots property. This DOES NOT check that the value is non-empty (for which, you should check the isEmpty() method on the property). This is useful because the SDK will never return a null collection or map, but you may need to differentiate between the service returning nothing (or null) and the service returning an empty collection or map. For requests, this returns true if a value for the property was specified in the request builder, and false if a value was not specified.
      • slots

        public final Map<String,​Slot> slots()

        A map of all of the slots for the intent. The name of the slot maps to the value of the slot. If a slot has not been filled, the value is null.

        Attempts to modify the collection returned by this method will result in an UnsupportedOperationException.

        This method will never return null. If you would like to know whether the service returned this field (so that you can differentiate between null and empty), you can use the hasSlots() method.

        Returns:
        A map of all of the slots for the intent. The name of the slot maps to the value of the slot. If a slot has not been filled, the value is null.
      • state

        public final IntentState state()

        Indicates the fulfillment state for the intent. The meanings of each value are as follows:

        • Failed – The bot failed to fulfill the intent.

        • Fulfilled – The bot has completed fulfillment of the intent.

        • FulfillmentInProgress – The bot is in the middle of fulfilling the intent.

        • InProgress – The bot is in the middle of eliciting the slot values that are necessary to fulfill the intent.

        • ReadyForFulfillment – The bot has elicited all the slot values for the intent and is ready to fulfill the intent.

        • Waiting – The bot is waiting for a response from the user (limited to streaming conversations).

        If the service returns an enum value that is not available in the current SDK version, state will return IntentState.UNKNOWN_TO_SDK_VERSION. The raw value returned by the service is available from stateAsString().

        Returns:
        Indicates the fulfillment state for the intent. The meanings of each value are as follows:

        • Failed – The bot failed to fulfill the intent.

        • Fulfilled – The bot has completed fulfillment of the intent.

        • FulfillmentInProgress – The bot is in the middle of fulfilling the intent.

        • InProgress – The bot is in the middle of eliciting the slot values that are necessary to fulfill the intent.

        • ReadyForFulfillment – The bot has elicited all the slot values for the intent and is ready to fulfill the intent.
