Genesys Cloud enables generation of AI-powered intents for inbound email flows based on intent descriptions, requiring the Genesys Cloud CX AI Experience license. Intents represent user goals or tasks such as placing an order or retrieving account information and are configured within inbound email flows under the Natural Language Understanding section. Users create intents by providing distinctive names and detailed descriptions that supply context for utterance generation, with Genesys recommending comprehensive descriptions to improve accuracy.
The Detect Intent action executes configured logic when intents are identified in incoming emails. A Test Intents panel allows validation of configured intents against sample email content, displaying detected intents and matching rationale. The testing workflow involves navigating to Natural Language Understanding > Intents, selecting Test Intents, entering a sample email message, and executing the test to review results. If intents do not match expected outcomes, users can create new intents or modify existing ones.
Unlike Digital Bot Flows, utterances within generated intents cannot be manually edited for inbound email flows; instead, detailed descriptions and testing against sample emails serve as the primary validation mechanism. Intent editing allows modification of intent names and descriptions through the edit interface. Intents, descriptions, and sample emails are editable or deletable as needed. Deleting an intent removes all associated components including utterances and entities through a two-step confirmation workflow.
Genesys Cloud includes a feedback mechanism allowing users to report documentation issues, specify their role, and access related articles covering Architect functionality, ACD email configuration, inbound email flow management, and bot intent handling. The documentation recommends providing detailed descriptions and validating use cases against sample email contents to ensure proper intent configuration.
