Remarks

Call the SendMessageAsync method to send a user message to the AI service.

The following code snippet sends a predefined message to the AI chat when a button is clicked:

<DxButton Text="Send Message to Chat"
          Click="SendSampleMessage" />

<DxAIChat @ref="Chat" />

@code {
    DxAIChat Chat { get; set; }

    public async Task SendSampleMessage() {
        string messageText = "What is Blazor?";
        await Chat.SendMessageAsync(messageText);
    }
}

To add a message to the chat history without sending it to the AI service, use the AppendMessageAsync method.
