A system is provided for determining which user inputs correspond to eligible actions for a particular device type. The system determines a device type identifier corresponding to the device that receives the user input and an action to be performed in response to the user input. The system determines that the performed action corresponds to an eligible action type for the device type identifier, and performs further processing using data related to the corresponding user input. Different device type identifiers may be associated with different eligible action types. The system may evaluate multiple user inputs from different users and different devices.

Action eligibility for natural language processing systems

Techniques for responding to a user input using a device-executable intent are described. A user may speak, to a device, an input corresponding to a first natural language understanding (NLU) intent executable by a speech processing system. The speech processing system may determine a device type corresponding to the device and, based on the device type, determine a data subscription is required to execute the first NLU intent. Thereafter, the speech processing system may determine a second NLU intent that is executable by the device and that results in the output of similar content to the execution of the first NLU intent. The speech processing system then directs the device to execute the second NLU intent.
