Widget SiriKit intent enum value for index

Question

I'm trying to add another SiriKit intent to my Widget to allow user to select a reddit category such as top, hot, new etc. I've set my enum in my custom intents. My question is how do I get the display name from the index? It's being assigned to a URL string so the rawValue won't work. I attempted to use Sort(rawValue:configuration.sort.rawValue)! with the same results https://www.reddit.com/r/swiftui/1.json. I need the url to behttps://www.reddit.com/r/swiftui/hot.json.

I ended up creating an Int enum containing the same as in my intentdefinition. Then created an extension for my enum to return a string value for the intent's rawValue. I was mistaken that my intentdefinition would provide me a string value for the index.

enum SortBy : Int {
    case hot = 1
    case new
    case controversial
    case top
    case rising
}

extension SortBy {
    var sortValue: String {
        switch self {
        case .hot:
            return "hot"
        case .new:
            return "new"
        case .controversial:
            return "controversial"
        case .top:
            return "top"
        case .rising:
            return "rising"
        }
    }
}

SortBy(rawValue: configuration.sort.rawValue)!
