Zing Triggers

An overview of all trigger criteria available when creating a Zing

Updated over a year ago

This is an overview of the types of Triggers and how to configure them. A Trigger defines when a Zing runs. Below are all supported Triggers and how to set them up.

Zing Trigger List

Intent Recognized

Occurs when intent is recognized for an inbound message using Medallia Concierge's Artificial Intelligence (AI) engine. Medallia Concierge currently has 21 hospitality-related intents that can be identified and trigger subsequent actions. Many Medallia Concierge customers currently use "keywords" to recognize intent; however, using this trigger will be more accurate because it uses AI and NLP (natural language processing).

Instructions:

  1. Select a "confidence level". The Medallia Concierge AI model is built to err on the side of caution and is conservative by design; however, we understand our customers may want some control over the confidence thresholds.

  2. Select an intent. As of the time of publishing, Medallia Concierge supports the following intents:

  • Broken - Reporting something is broken

  • Bugs - Reporting of bugs

  • Checkin - Requesting checkin time info

  • Checkin - Requesting early checkin

  • Checkout - Requesting checkout time info

  • Checkout - Requesting late checkout

  • Cleaning - Request room clean

  • Cleaning - Requesting cleaning schedule

  • Extension - Requesting stay extension

  • Gym - Requesting gym info

  • Info - Requesting hotel info

  • Lost - Reporting of lost item

  • Luggage - Requesting hold luggage

  • Parking - Requesting parking info

  • Plumbing - Reporting of plumbing issue

  • Room - Requesting item to room

  • Room - Room ready request

  • Taxi - Requesting a taxi

  • Thank you - Guest saying thank you

  • Wakeup Call - Requesting a wakeup call

  • Wifi - Requesting wifi access

3. Select to automatically run the Zing when the intent is recognized, or choose to "suggest" the Zing. Suggesting a Zing will automatically pop up a dialog box above the reply input (in the Inbox), giving the Medallia Concierge user the option to run.
