Yes, you can provide them as a list.

To tag on this question, if I have a couple of forms that I would like to exclude the same intents, is it possible to define that list as a variable and specify that variable for not\_intent?

i.e

```
excluded_intents:
    - excluded_intent_1 
    - excluded_intent_2

forms:
  your_form:
    slot_name:
    - type: from_intent
      value: my_value
      intent: intent_name
      not_intent: 
         excluded_intents

  your_form_2:
    slot_name:
    - type: from_intent
      value: my_value
      intent: intent_name
      not_intent: 
         excluded_intents
```

There’s a feature for this that’ll come up in the next minor release! [https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/pull/7931](https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa/pull/7931)

Hi @mloubser, and what about a list in the `intent` key? I’ve tried but it’s seems rasa is not prepared for it:

`UserWarning: Slot 'my_slot' uses a 'from_intent' mapping for a non-existent intent '['intent_1', 'intent_2']'. Skipping slot extraction because of invalid mapping.`

My domain file looks like this:

```auto
my_slot:
    type: bool
    influence_conversation: true
    mappings:
    - type: from_intent
      value: true
      intent:
        - intent_1
        - intent_2

```

Thanks!
