Force JSON object response format
Users can now force command-nightlyto generate outputs in JSON objects by setting the response_format parameter in the Chat API. Users can also specify a JSON schema for the output.
This feature is available across all of Cohere's SDKs (Python, Typescript, Java, Go).
Example request for forcing JSON response format:
POST https://api.cohere.ai/v1/chat
{
"message": "Generate a JSON that represents a person, with name and age",
"model": "command-nightly",
"response_format": {
"type": "json_object"
}
}Example request for forcing JSON response format in user defined schema:
POST https://api.cohere.ai/v1/chat
{
"message": "Generate a JSON that represents a person, with name and age",
"model": "command-nightly",
"response_format": {
"type": "json_object",
"schema": {
"type": "object",
"required": ["name", "age"],
"properties": {
"name": { "type": "string" },
"age": { "type": "integer" }
}
}
}
}
Currently only compatible with `command-nightly model.
