Description
View the user's existing reservation. Determine the reservation by the event name and booking time using the reservation.reservationFor.name and reservation.bookingTime intent parameters to present the most relevant ones to the user. Also filter results by the reservation time using the reservation.reservedTime intent parameter, if available.

Example queries

The following fields represent essential information that users often provide in queries that trigger this built-in intent:

reservation.bookingTime
reservation.reservationFor.name

Other supported fields

The following fields represent information that users often provide to disambiguate their needs or otherwise improve their results:

reservation.@type
reservation.reservationFor.@type
reservation.reservedTime

Android widgets and slices

We recommend implementing Android widgets for this built-in intent. A widget presents information or interaction options from your app to improve user engagement in Google Assistant. Widgets are available for App Actions implementations using shortcuts.xml.

If you have a legacy App Actions implementation using actions.xml, use Android slices instead. We recommend migrating your implementation to shortcuts.xml to take advantage of widgets fulfillment and other improvements.

Use web inventory

reservation.reservationFor.name is a field that supports web inventory. In the following example, Google Assistant performs a web search for the user query and determines the fulfillment URL. Assistant filters for search results that match the provided urlFilter value of https://www.mywebsite.com/link1/.*.
