About the intents list for your bot
If you have an intent model assigned to your account, you can view a list of intents for each conversation bot.
The Intents page includes the intents list, which displays data relevant to intent usage and categorization. The list includes these columns:
-
Topic: The intent text.
-
Category: The subcategory of the intent.
-
Frequency: The number of matched customer queries in the set period. This count is recorded only for intents not assigned to an answer.
-
Answer: The intent’s behavior when matched to a customer query. You can use the drop-down in this column to set or update the intent’s behavior. Options include:
-
Generate a reply (default setting for bots with generative AI only): The bot creates a response to a customer’s matching question.
-
Don’t generate a reply (bots with generative AI only): The bot replies with the standard bot response (“Sorry I couldn't find a good answer to your question. Here are some topics that might help though”).
-
Add an answer (default setting for bots without generative AI): The bot replies with the standard bot response (“Sorry I couldn't find a good answer to your question. Here are some topics that might help though”).
-
Listed answer: The bot replies with the displayed answer.
-
