Remarks

“Smart Paste” is an AI-powered feature that analyzes the source content (Data) and intelligently assigns the right values to the appropriate items in Items based on their Value and Description.

The following example registers an Azure OpenAI client to use the AI-powered Smart Paste extension to analyze the rawData and intelligently assign the right values to the appropriate items:

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 rawData = "The 42 DevAV LED TV is changing the way people watch TV. It delivers crystal-clear images with mind-blowing video. Product Dimensions 42x28x10, Product Weight 70 lbs";
var response = await defaultAIExtensionsContainer.SmartPasteAsync(
    new SmartPasteRequest(rawData, new List<SmartPasteRequest.ItemInfo>() {
        new SmartPasteRequest.ItemInfo("product", "Product Name"),
        new SmartPasteRequest.ItemInfo("weight", "Weight")
    })
);

foreach (SmartPasteResponse.ItemInfo info in response.Values)
    Console.WriteLine(string.Format("{0}: {1}", info.Id, info.Value));

/* Output:
 * product: 42 DevAV LED TV
 * weight: 70 lbs
 */

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});
}
