# Create an Connect AI agents intent from an Connect Customer instance
<a name="create-qic-intent-connect"></a>

You can use the generative AI capabilities powered by Connect AI agents for your bot by enabling the [AMAZON.QinConnectIntent](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lexv2/latest/dg/built-in-intent-qinconnect.html) in your bot. This is an Amazon Lex built-in intent. 

Complete the following steps to enable Connect AI agents.

1. Open the bot for which you want to add the **AMAZON.QinConnectIntent** intent.

1. Navigate to the **Configuration** tab in the bot builder interface.

1. Enable the **AMAZON.QinConnectIntent** intent by setting the toggle to on. The following image shows the location of the toggle.

   The **Connect AI agents intent** toggle is only supported for bots created directly within the Connect Customer admin website. To add Amazon Q capabilities to intents for bots created outside of Connect Customer admin website, use the Amazon Lex console to update the configuration.

1. In the **Enable Connect AI agents intent **dialog box, use the dropdown menu to choose the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Connect AI agents intent.

1. Choose **Confirm** to add **AMAZON.QinConnectIntent** intent support.
**Important**  
You cannot use **AMAZON.QInConnectIntent** along with intents without specific utterances such as **AMAZON.QnAIntent**, **AMAZON.BedrockAgentIntent** in the same bot locale.
