FDC3 Intents specifications, schemas, and examples

• Extending APIs from one App to another is powerful...
• However, it requires building to a specific API ahead of time
• Standard context and intent definitions let us create workflows on the fly

FDC3 Intents define a standard set of verbs that can be used to put together common cross-application workflows on the financial desktop.

• Applications register intents they support
• The registries support app discovery by intent
• Intents are not full RPC, Apps don’t need to enumerate every function with an intent
• FDC3 Standard intents are a limited set, organizations can create their own intents
