Generate Content

There are a few things to consider before Generating Content:
  1. What do I want to generate? This can be as simple as “Write a story about bees” or “Write a paragraph about product X”. As long as your prompt is below the character limit of 500.
  2. How do I want to group the content to be generated? Writing an article that is split into multiple sections with different headings, add sections to structure the generated content.
  3. Do I want to use Terminology specific to my organization? Add a memoryId to the request. See the API docs for more info.
Below is an example request to generate content in English.
The response is an event stream of the generated content. You can choose to read the stream, or you can choose to wait until a DONE message is emitted. Try it out with something that makes sense for your organization or a different language you are proficient with.
