## Parameters

- `intent`: The intent object containing details of the user’s request. Use this object to get the initial information, if any, provided by the user.

## Discussion

Discussion Implement this method to verify the identify of the payee in your app. The payee represents the entity that provided the bill to the user. Siri puts any payee-related information into the billPayee property of the intent object. Use that information to match the payee’s nickname or organization to one of the entities that the user registered with your app. (You should also use the information in the billType property to verify that you’re scheduling payment for the correct bill). Always strive toward a successful resolution of the payee, but feel free to return a different resolution if you can’t locate the payee or you aren’t sure which bill the user intended to pay.
