FDC3 Intents
FDC3 Intents are standardized verbs that applications use to request functionality from other applications on the financial desktop. Standard intents include ViewChart, ViewQuote, ViewNews, ViewAnalysis, ViewInstrument, ViewHoldings, ViewOrders, ViewResearch, ViewProfile, ViewInteractions, ViewMessages, ViewChat, StartCall, StartChat, StartEmail, CreateInteraction, and CreateOrUpdateProfile. Applications declare which intents they handle in their App Directory entry, and the Desktop Agent routes intent requests to appropriate handler apps.
