# Requests (Intake-Buyers)

The Requests list provides a centralized hub to manage all incoming sourcing intake requests efficiently, allowing you to better manage and triage your company's requests. You can review requests, message requesters for clarification, and decide how to proceed as requests come in. Once reviewed, you can create Fairmarkit events from requests and archive the rest. With the filters, you can easily organize your requests and make easy decisions on how to proceed.

Sourcing intake helps you engage better with your teams, allowing you to engage earlier in the process contributing to improved procurement planning and decision-making. With your Requests list, you can streamline your process, quickly reviewing a list of triaged, categorized, and organized requests and expediting your procurement process.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fairmarkit.com/buyers/requests-intake-buyers.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
