Abstract

A server identifies, by parsing through code of an online page, information related to offerings associated with the online page. The server identifies a set of intents based on the information. At least a portion of the set of intents corresponds to headers or menu items of the online page. The server updates the set of intents based on supplemental information accessible by a hyperlink from the online page. The server transmits the updated set of intents to a first user device. The server receives an acceptance of a subset of the updated set of intents from the first user device. The server stores, in an intent data repository, the accepted subset of the updated set of intents. The intent data repository stores intents to which queries are to be matched. The queries are received during a contact center engagement between an end-user and a computer-implemented agent.

Claims (49)

1. A method, comprising:

identifying, by parsing through code of an online page associated with an entity for which a contact center system is operated, information related to offerings associated with the online page;

identifying a set of intents based on the information, at least a portion of the set of intents corresponding to headers or menu items of the online page;

updating the set of intents based on supplemental information accessible by a hyperlink from the online page;

transmitting, via a network, the updated set of intents to a first user device;

receiving, via the network, an acceptance of a subset of the updated set of intents from the first user device; and

storing, in an intent data repository, the accepted subset of the updated set of intents, wherein the intent data repository stores intents to which queries are to be matched by the contact center system, the queries being received during a contact center engagement between an end-user and a computer-implemented agent.

2. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

transmitting the accepted subset of the updated set of intents to a second user device; and

receiving a workflow for at least one intent from the accepted subset from the second user device.

3. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

determining, based on a bot instruction file for the online page, that automated access to at least a part of the online page is permitted.

4. The method of claim 1 , the information comprising a menu of the online page or the headers of the online page.

5. The method of claim 1 , parsing through the code being performed using a parser configured to identify the headers or the menu items of the online page.

6. The method of claim 1 , the code comprising hypertext markup language (HTML) code.

7. The method of claim 1 , the supplemental information residing on an additional online page.

8. A non-transitory computer readable medium storing instructions operable to cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

identifying, by parsing through code of an online page associated with an entity for which a contact center system is operated, information related to offerings associated with the online page;

identifying a set of intents based on the information, at least a portion of the set of intents corresponding to headers or menu items of the online page;

updating the set of intents based on supplemental information accessible by a hyperlink from the online page;

transmitting, via a network, the updated set of intents to a first user device;

receiving, via the network, an acceptance of a subset of the updated set of intents from the first user device; and

storing, in an intent data repository, the accepted subset of the updated set of intents, wherein the intent data repository stores intents to which queries are to be matched by the contact center system, the queries being received during a contact center engagement between an end-user and a computer-implemented agent.

9. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations comprising:

transmitting the accepted subset of the updated set of intents to a second user device; and

receiving workflows for intents from the accepted subset from the second user device.

10. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , the operations comprising:

determining, based on a bot instruction file for the online page, that automated access to the online page is permitted.

11. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , the information comprising a menu of the online page.

12. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , parsing through the code being performed using a parser configured to identify the menu items of the online page.

13. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , the code being in a markup language.

14. The computer readable medium of claim 8 , the supplemental information residing on an additional online page and corresponding to headers or menu items of the additional online page.

15. An apparatus comprising:

a memory; and

a processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:

identify, by parsing through code of an online page associated with an entity for which a contact center system is operated, information related to offerings associated with the online page;

identify a set of intents based on the information, at least a portion of the set of intents corresponding to headers or menu items of the online page;

update the set of intents based on supplemental information accessible by a hyperlink from the online page;

transmit, via a network, the updated set of intents to a first user device;

receiving, via the network, an acceptance of a subset of the updated set of intents from the first user device; and

store, in an intent data repository, the accepted subset of the updated set of intents, wherein the intent data repository stores intents to which queries are to be matched by the contact center system, the queries being received during a contact center engagement between an end-user and a computer-implemented agent.

16. The apparatus of claim 15 , the processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:

transmit the accepted subset of the updated set of intents to a second user device; and

receive a response template for at least one intent from the accepted subset from the second user device.

17. The apparatus of claim 15 , the processor configured to execute instructions stored in the memory to:

determine, based on an instruction file associated with the online page, that automated access to the online page is permitted.

18. The apparatus of claim 15 , the information comprising the headers of the online page.

19. The apparatus of claim 15 , parsing through the code being performed using a parser configured to identify the headers of the online page.

20. The apparatus of claim 15 , the supplemental information corresponding to headers or menu items of an additional online page.
