Create a Models API Lightning Web Component

Learning Objectives

After completing this unit, you’ll be able to:

Create a custom Apex class.
Build a Lightning web component.
Deploy a Lightning web component to your AI Playground.
Edit an org page with Lightning App Builder.

Now that you’ve set up your environment, it’s time to add functionality to the Lightning Web Component. In this unit, we follow along with Maria as she creates a custom Apex class, designs the UI, adds functional JavaScript, and deploys her Models API dashboard to the AI Playground.

Developer Doc Writer Example Use Case

This video shows you how to build a Lightning web component that accesses the Models API, using a basic example similar to the one in this module.

Create Models API Apex Classes

In VS Code, right-click the classes folder located under force-app/main and select SDFX: Create Apex Class. Name the class DashboardController.
New Apex classes in VS Code come with five lines of default code. Remove this default code. You won’t need any default code for this module since we provide complete code samples for both Apex classes and Lightning web component files.
In the Apex class file, DashboardController.cls, copy and paste the following code.

public with sharing class DashboardController {
    @AuraEnabled
    public static String createChatGenerations(String input) {
        String fileContent = HousingData.jsonString;
        // Escape double quotes, newlines, and carriage returns within the JSON string
        String escapedFileContent = HousingData.jsonString
        .replace('\\', '\\\\') // Escape backslashes
        .replace('"', '\\"')   // Escape double quotes
        .replace('\n', '\\n')  // Escape newlines
        .replace('\r', '\\r'); // Escape carriage returns


        // Construct the input string
        String instructions = '[{"role": "user", "message": "Summarize the sample housing data as if you were a real estate broker. Housing Data: ' + escapedFileContent + '"}]';
        

        // Deserialize the file content into a list of ChatMessage objects
        List<DashboardController.ChatMessage> messages = (List<DashboardController.ChatMessage>) JSON.deserialize(
            instructions,
            List<DashboardController.ChatMessage>.class
        );


        // Instantiate the API class
        aiplatform.ModelsAPI modelsAPI = new aiplatform.ModelsAPI();


        // Prepare the request and body objects
        aiplatform.ModelsAPI.createChatGenerations_Request request = new aiplatform.ModelsAPI.createChatGenerations_Request();
        aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatGenerationsRequest body = new aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatGenerationsRequest();


        // Specify model
        request.modelName = 'sfdc_ai__DefaultGPT35Turbo';


        // Create a list to hold chat messages
        List<aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatMessageRequest> messagesList = new List<aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatMessageRequest>();


        // Loop through the input messages and create message requests
        for (ChatMessage msg : messages) {
            aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatMessageRequest messageRequest = new aiplatform.ModelsAPI_ChatMessageRequest();
            messageRequest.content = msg.message != null ? msg.message : ''; // Handle null message
            messageRequest.role = msg.role != null ? msg.role : 'user'; // Handle null role
            messagesList.add(messageRequest);
        }


        // Set the messages in the request body
        body.messages = messagesList;


        // Set the request body and model name
        request.body = body;


        String response = '';


        try {
            // Call the API and get the response
            aiplatform.ModelsAPI.createChatGenerations_Response apiResponse = modelsAPI.createChatGenerations(
                request
            );


            // Check that we have a non-null response
            if (
                apiResponse?.Code200?.generationDetails?.generations != null &&
                !apiResponse.Code200.generationDetails.generations.isEmpty()
            ) {
                // Set the variable from the response
                response = apiResponse.Code200.generationDetails.generations[0]
                    .content;
            } else {
                // Handle the case where response is null
                response = 'No content generated';
            }


        // Handle error
        } catch(aiplatform.ModelsAPI.createChatGenerations_ResponseException e) {
            System.debug('Response code: ' + e.responseCode);
            System.debug('The following exception occurred: ' + e);


            // Add error to the output
            response = 'Unable to get a valid response. Error code: ' + e.responseCode;
        }


        return response;
    }
    

    public class ChatMessage {


        public String role;
        public String message;


        public ChatMessage() {
        }


        public ChatMessage(String role, String message) {
            this.role = role;
            this.message = message;
        }
    }
}

Housing Data Error You may see an error that there is no class named HousingData. Follow the instructions in the next section to add the HousingData class. This data is represented as a static class for demonstration purposes.

Create a New Class for Grounding Data

For Maria’s Models API dashboard to be functional, she needs to ground the LLM with relevant housing market data. In this step, we create a new class and populate it with data so that it may be referenced by the DashboardController class.

For demonstration purposes, the data is a local file within the LWC. In an official implementation of this dashboard, the data in this step would be dynamically retrieved from a housing market API.

In VS Code, right-click the classes folder and select SDFX: Create Apex Class. Name the class HousingData.
In the Apex class file, HousingData.cls, copy and paste the following code.

public class HousingData {
    public static final String jsonString = '{\n' +
