# Intent Navigator

Through the intent navigator functionality, intent/entities can be detected previously outside eva and then avoid being detected from running NLP on eva.&#x20;

This allows integrating eva with channels that already use their own NLP and thus avoiding double calls (i.e. Amazon Connect, Alexa or any IVR/CTI integrated with other NLP services

Sample request with Intent Navigator:

```
{
	"text": "How much do I have in my account?",
	"context":{
		"user": 25237,
		"foo": "bar"
	}
	"intent":"”BALANCE",
 	"confidence":0.88,
 	"entities":{
        	"entityName":"entityValue"
 	}
}
```
