Creates an Amazon Lex conversational bot or replaces an existing bot. When you create or update a bot you are only required to specify a name, a locale, and whether the bot is directed toward children under age 13. You can use this to add intents later, or to remove intents from an existing bot. When you create a bot with the minimum information, the bot is created or updated but Amazon Lex returns the `` response FAILED. You can build the bot after you add one or more intents. For more information about Amazon Lex bots, see how-it-works.

)[required] The name of the bot. The name is not case sensitive.
A description of the bot.
An array of Intent objects. Each intent represents a command that a
user can express. For example, a pizza ordering bot might support an
OrderPizza intent. For more information, see how-it-works.
Set to true to enable access to natural language understanding
improvements.
When you set the enableModelImprovements parameter to true you can
use the nluIntentConfidenceThreshold parameter to configure confidence
scores. For more information, see Confidence Scores.
You can only set the enableModelImprovements parameter in certain
Regions. If you set the parameter to true, your bot has access to
accuracy improvements.
The Regions where you can set the enableModelImprovements parameter to
true are:
US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1)
US West (Oregon) (us-west-2)
Asia Pacific (Sydney) (ap-southeast-2)
EU (Ireland) (eu-west-1)
In other Regions, the enableModelImprovements parameter is set to
true by default. In these Regions setting the parameter to false
throws a ValidationException exception.
Determines the threshold where Amazon Lex will insert the
AMAZON.FallbackIntent, AMAZON.KendraSearchIntent, or both when
returning alternative intents in a
PostContent
or
PostText
response. AMAZON.FallbackIntent and AMAZON.KendraSearchIntent are
only inserted if they are configured for the bot.
You must set the enableModelImprovements parameter to true to use
confidence scores in the following regions.
US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1)
US West (Oregon) (us-west-2)
Asia Pacific (Sydney) (ap-southeast-2)
EU (Ireland) (eu-west-1)
In other Regions, the enableModelImprovements parameter is set to
true by default.
For example, suppose a bot is configured with the confidence threshold
of 0.80 and the AMAZON.FallbackIntent. Amazon Lex returns three
alternative intents with the following confidence scores: IntentA
(0.70), IntentB (0.60), IntentC (0.50). The response from the PostText
operation would be:
AMAZON.FallbackIntent
IntentA
IntentB
IntentC
When Amazon Lex doesn't understand the user's intent, it uses this
message to get clarification. To specify how many times Amazon Lex
should repeat the clarification prompt, use the maxAttempts field. If
Amazon Lex still doesn't understand, it sends the message in the
abortStatement field.
When you create a clarification prompt, make sure that it suggests the correct response from the user. for example, for a bot that orders pizza and drinks, you might create this clarification prompt: "What would you like to do? You can say 'Order a pizza' or 'Order a drink.'"
If you have defined a fallback intent, it will be invoked if the
clarification prompt is repeated the number of times defined in the
maxAttempts field. For more information, see
AMAZON.FallbackIntent.
If you don't define a clarification prompt, at runtime Amazon Lex will return a 400 Bad Request exception in three cases:
Follow-up prompt - When the user responds to a follow-up prompt but does not provide an intent. For example, in response to a follow-up prompt that says "Would you like anything else today?" the user says "Yes." Amazon Lex will return a 400 Bad Request exception because it does not have a clarification prompt to send to the user to get an intent.
Lambda function - When using a Lambda function, you return an
ElicitIntent dialog type. Since Amazon Lex does not have a
clarification prompt to get an intent from the user, it returns a
400 Bad Request exception.
PutSession operation - When using the PutSession operation, you
send an ElicitIntent dialog type. Since Amazon Lex does not have a
clarification prompt to get an intent from the user, it returns a
400 Bad Request exception.
When Amazon Lex can't understand the user's input in context, it tries
to elicit the information a few times. After that, Amazon Lex sends the
message defined in abortStatement to the user, and then cancels the
conversation. To set the number of retries, use the
valueElicitationPrompt field for the slot type.
For example, in a pizza ordering bot, Amazon Lex might ask a user "What type of crust would you like?" If the user's response is not one of the expected responses (for example, "thin crust, "deep dish," etc.), Amazon Lex tries to elicit a correct response a few more times.
For example, in a pizza ordering application, OrderPizza might be one
of the intents. This intent might require the CrustType slot. You
specify the valueElicitationPrompt field when you create the
CrustType slot.
If you have defined a fallback intent the cancel statement will not be sent to the user, the fallback intent is used instead. For more information, see AMAZON.FallbackIntent.
The maximum time in seconds that Amazon Lex retains the data gathered in a conversation.
A user interaction session remains active for the amount of time specified. If no conversation occurs during this time, the session expires and Amazon Lex deletes any data provided before the timeout.
For example, suppose that a user chooses the OrderPizza intent, but gets sidetracked halfway through placing an order. If the user doesn't complete the order within the specified time, Amazon Lex discards the slot information that it gathered, and the user must start over.
If you don't include the idleSessionTTLInSeconds element in a
put_bot operation request, Amazon
Lex uses the default value. This is also true if the request replaces an
existing bot.
The default is 300 seconds (5 minutes).
The Amazon Polly voice ID that you want Amazon Lex to use for voice interactions with the user. The locale configured for the voice must match the locale of the bot. For more information, see Voices in Amazon Polly in the Amazon Polly Developer Guide.
Identifies a specific revision of the $LATEST version.
When you create a new bot, leave the checksum field blank. If you
specify a checksum you get a BadRequestException exception.
When you want to update a bot, set the checksum field to the checksum
of the most recent revision of the $LATEST version. If you don't
specify the checksum field, or if the checksum does not match the
$LATEST version, you get a PreconditionFailedException exception.
If you set the processBehavior element to BUILD, Amazon Lex builds
the bot so that it can be run. If you set the element to SAVE Amazon
Lex saves the bot, but doesn't build it.
If you don't specify this value, the default value is BUILD.
[required] Specifies the target locale for the bot. Any intent used in the bot must be compatible with the locale of the bot.
The default is en-US.
[required] For each Amazon Lex bot created with the Amazon Lex Model Building
Service, you must specify whether your use of Amazon Lex is related to a
website, program, or other application that is directed or targeted, in
whole or in part, to children under age 13 and subject to the Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) by specifying true or false in
the childDirected field. By specifying true in the childDirected
field, you confirm that your use of Amazon Lex is related to a
website, program, or other application that is directed or targeted, in
whole or in part, to children under age 13 and subject to COPPA. By
specifying false in the childDirected field, you confirm that your
use of Amazon Lex is not related to a website, program, or other
application that is directed or targeted, in whole or in part, to
children under age 13 and subject to COPPA. You may not specify a
default value for the childDirected field that does not accurately
reflect whether your use of Amazon Lex is related to a website, program,
or other application that is directed or targeted, in whole or in part,
to children under age 13 and subject to COPPA.
If your use of Amazon Lex relates to a website, program, or other application that is directed in whole or in part, to children under age 13, you must obtain any required verifiable parental consent under COPPA. For information regarding the use of Amazon Lex in connection with websites, programs, or other applications that are directed or targeted, in whole or in part, to children under age 13, see the Amazon Lex FAQ.
When set to true user utterances are sent to Amazon Comprehend for
sentiment analysis. If you don't specify detectSentiment, the default
is false.
When set to true a new numbered version of the bot is created. This is
the same as calling the
create_bot_version
operation. If you don't specify createVersion, the default is false.
A list of tags to add to the bot. You can only add tags when you create
a bot, you can't use the put_bot
operation to update the tags on a bot. To update tags, use the
tag_resource operation.
