Discussion

To make your app’s content available to Apple Intelligence, conform your AppEntity to a schema that describes your content to the system. If your app’s functionality aligns with the files domain and its content matches the file schema, you can generate the properties and protocol conformance the schema requires for your app entity implementation with the @AppEntity( .files.file) Swift macro. To make your app work with Siri, see Apple Intelligence and Siri AI.

The following example shows an app entity that conforms to the file schema:

@AppEntity(schema: .files.file)
struct FileEntity: FileEntity {
    // MARK: Static

    static let defaultQuery = FileEntityQuery()
    static var supportedContentTypes = [<#UTType#>]

    // MARK: Properties

    let id: <#Identifiable.ID#>

    var creationDate: Date?
    var fileModificationDate: Date?

    var displayRepresentation: DisplayRepresentation {
        <#DisplayRepresentation#>
    }

    // MARK: Query

    struct FileEntityQuery: EntityQuery {
        func entities(for identifiers: [FileEntity.ID]) async throws -> [FileEntity] {
            <#code#>
        }
    }
}

The schema supports the following system experiences:

• Siri

• Shortcuts
