# createItem

The app intent conforms to the schema for creating an item on a whiteboard canvas.

## Declaration

```swift
var createItem: some AssistantSchemas.Intent { get }
```

## Overview

Overview Use Swift macros that generate additional properties and add protocol conformance for your app intent implementation. The following example shows an app intent that conforms to the .whiteboard.createItem schema: @AppIntent(schema: .whiteboard.createItem) struct CreateCanvasItemIntent: AppIntent {     @Parameter     var target: CanvasEntity

@Parameter     var itemType: CanvasItemType?

@Parameter     var text: String?

@Parameter     var mediaItems: [IntentFile]

@Parameter     var url: URL?

func perform() async throws -> some ReturnsValue<CanvasItemEntity> {         .result(value: CanvasItemEntity())     } } For more information about the .whiteboard app intent domain, see doc:Making-whiteboard-actions-available-to-siri-and-apple-intelligence.
