# AppIntentControlConfiguration

The description of a control that uses a custom app intent to provide user-configurable options.

## Declaration

```swift
@MainActor @preconcurrency struct AppIntentControlConfiguration<Configuration, Content> where Configuration : ControlConfigurationIntent, Content : ControlWidgetTemplate
```

## Overview

Overview The following example shows the configuration for a door opener control able to open a door specified by the user. struct DoorOpener: ControlWidget {     var body: some ControlWidgetConfiguration {         AppIntentControlConfiguration(             kind: "com.yourcompany.GarageDoorOpener",             provider: DoorValueProvider()         ) { door in             ControlWidgetToggle(                 door.name,                 isOn: door.isOpen,                 action: ToggleDoor(door)             ) {                 Label(                     $0 ? "Open" : "Closed",                     systemImage: $0 ? "door.open" : "door.closed"                 )             }         }     } } Every control has a unique kind, a string that you choose. You use this string to identify your control when reloading its template with ControlCenter. The value provider is an object that determines a value to use to render your template. This provider receives an intent containing user-editable parameters. The content closure defines the template that WidgetKit needs to render the control. If you create the configuration using a value provider, when WidgetKit invokes the content closure, it passes a value created by the provider’s AppIntentControlValueProvider/previewValue property or AppIntentControlValueProvider/currentValue() function.
