When passing PostTextRequest as input to an Aws::Client method, you can use a vanilla Hash:

{
  bot_name: "BotName", # required
  bot_alias: "BotAlias", # required
  user_id: "UserId", # required
  session_attributes: {
    "String" => "String",
  },
  request_attributes: {
    "String" => "String",
  },
  input_text: "Text", # required
  active_contexts: [
    {
      name: "ActiveContextName", # required
      time_to_live: { # required
        time_to_live_in_seconds: 1,
        turns_to_live: 1,
      },
      parameters: { # required
        "ParameterName" => "Text",

Instance Attribute Details

#active_contextsArray<Types::ActiveContext>

A list of contexts active for the request. A context can be activated when a previous intent is fulfilled, or by including the context in the request,

If you don\'t specify a list of contexts, Amazon Lex will use the current list of contexts for the session. If you specify an empty list, all contexts for the session are cleared.

Returns:

#bot_aliasString

The alias of the Amazon Lex bot.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The alias of the Amazon Lex bot.

#bot_nameString

The name of the Amazon Lex bot.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The name of the Amazon Lex bot.

#input_textString

The text that the user entered (Amazon Lex interprets this text).

Returns:

  • (String)

    The text that the user entered (Amazon Lex interprets this text).

#request_attributesHash<String,String>

Request-specific information passed between Amazon Lex and a client application.

The namespace x-amz-lex: is reserved for special attributes. Don\'t create any request attributes with the prefix x-amz-lex:.

For more information, see Setting Request Attributes.

Returns:

  • (Hash<String,String>)

    Request-specific information passed between Amazon Lex and a client application.

#session_attributesHash<String,String>

Application-specific information passed between Amazon Lex and a client application.

For more information, see Setting Session Attributes.

Returns:

  • (Hash<String,String>)

    Application-specific information passed between Amazon Lex and a client application.

#user_idString

The ID of the client application user. Amazon Lex uses this to identify a user\'s conversation with your bot. At runtime, each request must contain the userID field.

To decide the user ID to use for your application, consider the following factors.

  • The userID field must not contain any personally identifiable information of the user, for example, name, personal identification numbers, or other end user personal information.

  • If you want a user to start a conversation on one device and continue on another device, use a user-specific identifier.

  • If you want the same user to be able to have two independent conversations on two different devices, choose a device-specific identifier.

  • A user can\'t have two independent conversations with two different versions of the same bot. For example, a user can\'t have a conversation with the PROD and BETA versions of the same bot. If you anticipate that a user will need to have conversation with two different versions, for example, while testing, include the bot alias in the user ID to separate the two conversations.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The ID of the client application user.
