# Intent Based Promotions

QMS supports intent based promotions, whereby documents from promotions that are similar to the interests of the user are automatically boosted in the results.

NOTE:

Intent based ranking is licensed functionality, and is not available by default. Contact Technical Support for further details.

To run an intent based promotions query, set `IntentRankedQuery` to `True`, and set `Username` to the user name of the user that you want to target. For example:

    action=Query&Text=phone&Promotions=True&IntentRankedQuery=True&Username=jsmith

In this case, QMS queries the Promotion Agentstore a second time, using the profile terms for `jsmith`, against the set of promotion rules originally returned. QMS then returns the IDOL Server documents with the references from the `QMSVALUE1` fields of the static promotion rules that match this second query as intent ranked promotions.

To use intent based promotions, QMS must be able to communicate with a Community component and a Promotions Agentstore component. You can enable this feature in one of the following ways:

- Configure the `[IDOL]` section of the QMS configuration file with the host and port of an IDOL server.
- Create a `[Community]` section and a `[PromotionAgentStore]` section in the QMS configuration file, with `Host` and `Port` parameters that specify the host and port of the Community and Promotion Agentstore components that you want to use. Use this option if the `[IDOL]` configuration file section points to a DAH or IDOL Content component.
