Parsing the OpenAI messages json

[slreznit]

Hi,

I would like to use this SDK to Parse the messages Json and then iterate it and access the different fields

For example, can I do this?

 var messages = """
     [
         {
               "role": "system",
               "content": "You are an AI assistant..."
         },
         {
               "role": "user",
               "content": "some user question",
         }
     ]
     """;

List<ChatMessage> p = ParseChatRequest(messages);
foreach (var message in p)
{
    Print($"{p.role}, {p.content}").
}

public class ChatMessage
{
    public string Role { get; set; }
    public string Content { get; set; }
}

static List<ChatMessage> ParseChatRequest(string json)
{
    return JsonSerializer.Deserialize<List<ChatMessage>>(json);
}

you can simply do this right ?

Thank you for reaching out, @slreznit ! I have an open PR to add an example that illustrates how to serialize/deserialize a list of messages:
🔗 #124

Specifically, this file:
🔗 https://github.com/openai/openai-dotnet/pull/124/files#diff-5813b799855b3942f5ae2dac0014c17b8fa0088683506455676d656ef359cf7a

I would also like to add that we're working on making this simpler in the future. 😊

Hello @joseharriaga,
We're unable to parse messages with a content type of input_audio using the example you shared. I guess that's because they are considered Conversation instead of ChatMessage.
Could you please share an example of how to parse this type of content?

(We're also not able to parse ChatMessage when the role is set to Developer)

Hello, @omri08! We're preparing a fix for this issue, and our current estimate is to release it next week. Please stay tuned. 🙂
