The following example registers an Azure OpenAI client and uses the AI-powered extension to change the writing style of originalText:

C#
using Azure;
using Azure.AI.OpenAI;
using Microsoft.Extensions.AI;
using DevExpress.AIIntegration;
using DevExpress.AIIntegration.Extensions;

SetEnvironmentVariables();

// Register an Azure OpenAI client
AIExtensionsContainerDefault defaultAIExtensionsContainer = RegisterAzureOpenAIClient(
    Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT"),
    Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_APIKEY")
);

string originalText = "DevExpress released Universal v24.2 - the award-winning software development platform for .NET and Visual Studio developers.";
var response = await defaultAIExtensionsContainer.ChangeStyleAsync(
    new ChangeStyleRequest(originalText, WritingStyle.Academic)
);

Console.WriteLine(response);

/* Output:
 * DevExpress has announced the release of Universal v24.2, an acclaimed software development platform
 * designed specifically for .NET and Visual Studio developers.
 */

AIExtensionsContainerDefault RegisterAzureOpenAIClient(string azureOpenAIEndpoint, string azureOpenAIKey) {
    IChatClient client = new AzureOpenAIClient(
        new Uri(azureOpenAIEndpoint),
        new AzureKeyCredential(azureOpenAIKey))
            .AsChatClient("gpt-4o-mini");
    return AIExtensionsContainerConsole.CreateDefaultAIExtensionContainer(client);
}

void SetEnvironmentVariables() {
    Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT", {SPECIFY_YOUR_AZURE_ENDPOINT});
    Environment.SetEnvironmentVariable("AZURE_OPENAI_APIKEY", {SPECIFY_YOU_AZURE_KEY});
}
