# ChatTransformation {{< rawhtml >}}

Class ChatTransformation<TInput, TOutput>

Sends each incoming row as JSON to an Microsoft.Extensions.AI.IChatClient and writes the returned object back into the data flow. Typed output requests a JSON schema derived from TOutput; ExpandoObject output uses JSON mode.
