# message

The app entity describes an email message.

## Declaration

```swift
var message: some AssistantSchemas.Entity { get }
```

## Overview

Overview Use Swift macros that generate additional properties and add protocol conformance for your app entity implementation. The following example shows an app entity that conforms to the .mail.message schema: @AppEntity(schema: .mail.message) struct MailMessageEntity: AppEntity {     struct Query: EntityStringQuery {         func entities(for identifiers: [MailMessageEntity.ID]) async throws -> [MailMessageEntity] { [] }         func entities(matching string: String) async throws -> [MailMessageEntity] { [] }     }

static var defaultQuery = Query()     var displayRepresentation: DisplayRepresentation { "Mail Message" }
