Use inline inventory
shortcuts.xml
invoice.forService.name
is an
intent parameter that supports inline inventory.
By defining a <shortcut>
for invoice.forService.name
,
you can uniquely identify entities that are of interest to your app or restrict
fulfillment to the set of supported entities.
In the following example, when the user query matches the
forServiceName_one
shortcut, Assistant provides the associated shorcut identifier, ID_ONE
, as
the URL parameter forServiceName
to fulfillment.
If there is no inventory match, the text value received in the query for
invoice.forService.name
is passed
as-is.

actions.xml
invoice.forService.name
is an
intent parameter that supports inline inventory.
By defining an <entity-set>
for invoice.forService.name
,
you can uniquely identify entities that are of interest to your app or restrict
fulfillment to the set of supported entities.
In the following example, when the user query matches the
forServiceName_one
entity, Assistant provides the associated identifier, ID_ONE
, as
the URL parameter forServiceName
to fulfillment.
If there is no inventory match, the text value received in the query for
invoice.forService.name
is passed
as-is.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- This is a sample actions.xml -->
<actions>
<action intentName="actions.intent.GET_INVOICE">
<fulfillment urlTemplate="myapp://deeplink{?forServiceName}" >
<!-- forServiceName = "ID_ONE" or "ID_TWO" -->
<!-- If no inventory match, forServiceName is a text value, such as "Utility" -->
<!-- (Optional) Use entityMatchRequired="true" to require inventory match for fulfillment -->
<parameter-mapping urlParameter="forServiceName" intentParameter="invoice.forService.name" />
</fulfillment>
<!-- Define parameters with inventories here -->
<parameter name="invoice.forService.name">
<entity-set-reference entitySetId="forServiceNameEntitySet"/>
</parameter>
</action>
<entity-set entitySetId="forServiceNameEntitySet">
<!-- Provide an identifier per entity -->
<entity identifier="ID_ONE" name="forServiceName_one" alternateName="@array/forServiceName_one_synonyms"/>
<entity identifier="ID_TWO" name="forServiceName_two" alternateName="@array/forServiceName_two_synonyms"/>
</entity-set>
</actions>
The url
attribute associated with the entity can be used to
determine the fulfillment URL if there is an inventory match. In the following
example, when the user query matches the
forServiceName_one
entity, Assistant provides myapp://deeplink/one
as the fulfillment
URL.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- This is a sample actions.xml -->
<actions>
<action intentName="actions.intent.GET_INVOICE">
<!-- Use url from inventory match for deep link fulfillment -->
<fulfillment urlTemplate="{@url}" />
<!-- Provide a fallback fulfillment with no required parameters. For example, to your app search or router deeplink -->
<fulfillment urlTemplate="myapp://deeplink" />
<!-- Define parameters with inventories here -->
<parameter name="invoice.forService.name">
<entity-set-reference entitySetId="forServiceNameEntitySet"/>

<entity-set entitySetId="forServiceNameEntitySet">
<!-- Provide a URL per entity -->
