## Declaration

```

## Mentioned in

Defining app entities for your custom data types

## Discussion

Discussion To make your app’s parameter types available to Apple Intelligence, conform your AppEnum to a schema that describes a parameter’s possible values to the system. If your app’s functionality aligns with the photos domain and a parameter type matches the albumType schema, you can generate the protocol conformance the schema requires for your app enum implementation with the @AppEnum( .photos.albumType) Swift macro. To make your app work with Siri, see Apple Intelligence and Siri AI. The following example shows an app enum that conforms to the albumType schema: @AppEnum(schema: .photos.albumType) enum PhotoAlbumType: String {     case <#PhotoAlbumType Case#>

static let caseDisplayRepresentations: [Self: DisplayRepresentation] = [         <#DisplayRepresentations#>     ] } The schema supports the following system experiences: Siri Shortcuts For more information about the App Intents framework and the experiences it supports, see Getting started with the App Intents framework.
