- Action ID
actions.intent.CREATE_MEDIA_OBJECT
- Description
-
Record video using the video recording function in an app. Determine capture modes (like "slow motion" or "time lapse") or the camera direction using the
mediaObject.captureSetting.name
andmediaObject.captureSetting.value
intent parameters as a key-value pair. For example, a query to record slow motion video returns a key ofCaptureMode
and a value ofCaptureModeSlowMotion
.This built-in intent uses enumerated values for some parameters. Parameters that follow this pattern are listed in Supported text field values below, with the enumerated parameter values they support.

Use inline inventory to guide query matching
mediaObject.captureSetting.value
is a
field that supports inline inventory.
By defining an <entity-set>
for mediaObject.captureSetting.value
,
you can uniquely identify entities that are of interest to your app or restrict
fulfillment to the set of supported entities.
In the following example, when the user query matches the
value_one
entity, Assistant provides the associated identifier, ID_ONE
, as
the URL parameter value
to fulfillment.
If there is no inventory match, the text value received in the query for
mediaObject.captureSetting.value
is passed
as-is.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- This is a sample actions.xml -->
<actions>
<action intentName="actions.intent.CREATE_MEDIA_OBJECT">
<fulfillment urlTemplate="myapp://deeplink{?value}" >
<!-- value = "ID_ONE" or "ID_TWO" -->
<!-- If no inventory match, value is a text value, such as "CameraFaceFrontCamera" -->
<!-- (Optional) Use entityMatchRequired="true" to require inventory match for fulfillment -->
<parameter-mapping urlParameter="value" intentParameter="mediaObject.captureSetting.value" />
</fulfillment>
<!-- Define parameters with inventories here -->
<parameter name="mediaObject.captureSetting.value">
<entity-set-reference entitySetId="valueEntitySet"/>
</parameter>
</action>
<entity-set entitySetId="valueEntitySet">
<!-- Provide an identifier per entity -->
<entity identifier="ID_ONE" name="value_one" alternateName="@array/value_one_synonyms"/>
<entity identifier="ID_TWO" name="value_two" alternateName="@array/value_two_synonyms"/>
</entity-set>
</actions>
Derive fulfillment URL using inline inventory
The url
attribute associated with the entity can be used to
determine the fulfillment URL if there is an inventory match. In the following
example, when the user query matches the
value_one
entity, Assistant provides myapp://deeplink/one
as the fulfillment
URL.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- This is a sample actions.xml -->
<actions>
<action intentName="actions.intent.CREATE_MEDIA_OBJECT">
<!-- Use url from inventory match for deep link fulfillment -->
<fulfillment urlTemplate="{@url}" />
<!-- Provide a fallback fulfillment with no required parameters. For example, to your app search or router deeplink -->
<fulfillment urlTemplate="myapp://deeplink" />
<!-- Define parameters with inventories here -->
<parameter name="mediaObject.captureSetting.value">
<entity-set-reference entitySetId="valueEntitySet"/>
</parameter>
</action>
<entity-set entitySetId="valueEntitySet">
<!-- Provide a URL per entity -->
<entity url="myapp://deeplink/one" name="value_one" alternateName="@array/value_one_synonyms"/>
<entity url="myapp://deeplink/two" name="value_two" alternateName="@array/value_two_synonyms"/>
</entity-set>
