Salesforce Models REST API
Public
Salesforce's Models REST API (v1) for chat, text generation, embeddings and feedback with large language models.
Use Cases
Chat Generation Integration
Tech / ITDevelopers send a list of chat messages to a model and get a reply, for example to add a chat feature to an app.
Generation Feedback Capture
Tech / ITDevelopers send feedback on a generated response, for example a thumbs down for an incomplete answer.
Embedding Generation
Tech / ITData scientists create embedding vectors for input text with an embedding request.
Agent Grounding
Tech / ITAI agents look up exact request and response fields, such as the details of a chat generation response, before they write code.
Overview
The Salesforce Models REST API connects an app to large language models (LLMs) for chat, embeddings, text generation and feedback. Requests go through the Einstein Trust Layer. Salesforce publishes the OpenAPI 3.0 file for this API in the salesforce/einstein-platform repository on GitHub, under the Apache 2.0 license. The schemas in this entry include ChatGenerationsRequest, ChatMessage, GenerationRequest, EmbeddingRequest and FeedbackRequest. Other schemas carry trust scan and localization details. This entry covers the Models REST API, not the sObject data API. Developers can use this entry to check request and response shapes before they call the Models API from code or Apex.

Mappings
- schema.org Message: conceptual. ChatMessage aligns in intent with schema.org Message, not field by field.
For agents
Query the library's CoreModels project for request and response shapes before writing Models API calls. Check model names in Salesforce's current guide. Sample prompt: "Using the Salesforce Models REST API schema in the Schematica Library, which fields of a ChatGenerationsRequest hold the messages and the localization?"
