- max_chunk_size number
  
  The maximum size of a chunk in words. This value cannot be lower than 20 (for sentence strategy) or 10 (for word strategy). This value should not exceed the window size for the associated model.
  
  Default value is 250.
- overlap number
  
  The number of overlapping words for chunks. It is applicable only to a word chunking strategy. This value cannot be higher than half the max_chunk_size value.
  
  Default value is 100.
- sentence_overlap number
  
  The number of overlapping sentences for chunks. It is applicable only for a sentence chunking strategy. It can be either 1 or 0.
  
  Default value is 1.
- separator_group string
  
  Only applicable to the recursive strategy and required when using it.
  
  Sets a predefined list of separators in the saved chunking settings based on the selected text type. Values can be markdown or plaintext.
  
  Using this parameter is an alternative to manually specifying a custom separators list.
- separators array[string]
  
  Only applicable to the recursive strategy and required when using it.
  
  A list of strings used as possible split points when chunking text.
  
  Each string can be a plain string or a regular expression (regex) pattern. The system tries each separator in order to split the text, starting from the first item in the list.
  
  After splitting, it attempts to recombine smaller pieces into larger chunks that stay within the max_chunk_size limit, to reduce the total number of chunks generated.
- strategy string
  The chunking strategy: sentence, word, none or recursive.
  
  If strategy is set to recursive, you must also specify:
  
  max_chunk_size
  
  either separators orseparator_group
  
  Learn more about different chunking strategies in the linked documentation.
  Default value is sentence.
  
  External documentation
service string Required

The type of service supported for the specified task type. In this case, azureopenai.

Value is azureopenai.
service_settings object Required

Settings used to install the inference model. These settings are specific to the azureopenai service.

- api_key string
  
  A valid API key for your Azure OpenAI account. You must specify either api_key or entra_id. If you do not provide either or you provide both, you will receive an error when you try to create your model.
  
  IMPORTANT: You need to provide the API key only once, during the inference model creation. The get inference endpoint API does not retrieve your API key. After creating the inference model, you cannot change the associated API key. If you want to use a different API key, delete the inference model and recreate it with the same name and the updated API key.
  
  External documentation
- api_version string Required
  
  The Azure API version ID to use. It is recommended to use the latest supported non-preview version.
- deployment_id string Required
  
  The deployment name of your deployed models. Your Azure OpenAI deployments can be found though the Azure OpenAI Studio portal that is linked to your subscription.
  
  External documentation
- entra_id string
  
  A valid Microsoft Entra token. You must specify either api_key or entra_id. If you do not provide either or you provide both, you will receive an error when you try to create your model.
  
  External documentation
- rate_limit object
  
  This setting helps to minimize the number of rate limit errors returned from Azure. The azureopenai service sets a default number of requests allowed per minute depending on the task type. For text_embedding, it is set to 1440. For completion, it is set to 120.
