Abstract
Systems, methods and computer program products are described herein that enable an intelligent agent to automatically discover an application programming interface (API) exposed by a service, to obtain descriptive metadata associated with the API, and to generate, based on the metadata, natural language processing information and/or function call building information associated with at least one functionality of the service. In addition, the intelligent agent is enabled to use the natural language processing information to determine that a user intends to interact with the service based on at least one user input of the user and to use the function call building information to build a function call for interacting with the service based on the at least one user input of the user, and to place the function call to the service on behalf of the user.
