get_intents¶

LexModelBuildingService.Client.get_intents(**kwargs)¶

Returns intent information as follows:

If you specify the nameContains field, returns the $LATEST version of all intents that contain the specified string.
If you don’t specify the nameContains field, returns information about the $LATEST version of all intents.

The operation requires permission for the lex:GetIntents action.

Danger

This operation is deprecated and may not function as expected. This operation should not be used going forward and is only kept for the purpose of backwards compatiblity.

Request Syntax

response = client.get_intents(
    nextToken='string',
    maxResults=123,
    nameContains='string'
)

Parameters:

nextToken (string) – A pagination token that fetches the next page of intents. If the response to this API call is truncated, Amazon Lex returns a pagination token in the response. To fetch the next page of intents, specify the pagination token in the next request.
maxResults (integer) – The maximum number of intents to return in the response. The default is 10.
nameContains (string) – Substring to match in intent names. An intent will be returned if any part of its name matches the substring. For example, “xyz” matches both “xyzabc” and “abcxyz.”

Return type:
