# Notes

Make your note-taking app’s actions available to Apple Intelligence and Siri by adopting schemas for common note actions.

## Discussion

The `.notes` domain defines app schemas that provide a
structured representation for common note actions and content.
Apply schemas in the `.notes` domain to make your app’s note-taking functionality available to Apple Intelligence and Siri.

- [`createNote`](/documentation/AppIntents/AppSchema/NotesIntent/createNote):
  An intent that creates notes when people say phrases like “Create a note called meeting notes.”
- [`updateNote`](/documentation/AppIntents/AppSchema/NotesIntent/updateNote):
  An intent that updates notes when people say phrases like “Rename this note to taxes.” or “Move this note to my work folder.”

> Tip: Xcode generates a template implementation when you type `notes_` and select a schema from the suggestions list.

For more information about making your app’s actions available to Apple Intelligence and Siri, see [Apple Intelligence and Siri AI](/documentation/AppIntents/apple-intelligence-and-siri-ai).
