<Extension()>
Public Function AsIChatClient (client As PersistentAgentsClient, agentId As String, Optional defaultThreadId As String = Nothing, Optional throwOnContentErrors As Boolean = true) As IChatClient

Parameters

client
PersistentAgentsClient

The PersistentAgentsClient instance to be accessed as an IChatClient.

agentId
String

The unique identifier of the agent with which to interact.

defaultThreadId
String

An optional existing thread identifier for the chat session. This serves as a default, and may be overridden per call to GetResponseAsync(IEnumerable<ChatMessage>, ChatOptions, CancellationToken) or GetStreamingResponseAsync(IEnumerable<ChatMessage>, ChatOptions, CancellationToken) via the ConversationId property. If no thread ID is provided via either mechanism, a new thread will be created for the request.

throwOnContentErrors
Boolean

Throws an exception if content errors are returned from the service. Default is true. This is useful to detect errors when tools are misconfigured that otherwise would be unnoticed because those come as a streaming data update.

Returns

An IChatClient instance configured to interact with the specified agent and thread.
