Abstract
Described are techniques for linking generating a skill-stored user profile, and linking same with a natural language processing (NLP) system-stored user profile. In at least some examples, a user may provide a natural language input to a NLP system. The NLP system may determine a skill is to process to perform an action responsive to the natural language input. To perform the action, the skill may require the user have a user profile stored by the skill, but the user may not have such a user profile. However, the NLP system may store a user profile for the user. The NLP system may determine the user profile stored thereby and may send, with user permission, information in the user profile to the skill. The skill may use the received information to generate and store a user profile for the user. Thereafter, the skill may provide the NLP system with a user profile identifier that the skill may use to identify the user's profile stored thereby. The NLP system may store the received user profile identifier in the user's profile stored by the NLP system, thereby linking the user profiles and enabling the skill to thereafter personalize processing with respect to natural language inputs of the user.
