Cloud Bindings

Spring AI provides support for cloud bindings based on the foundations in spring-cloud-bindings. This allows applications to specify a binding type for a provider and then express properties using a generic format. The spring-ai cloud bindings will process these properties and bind them to spring-ai native properties.

For example, when using OpenAi, the binding type is openai. Using the property spring.ai.cloud.bindings.openai.enabled, the binding processor can be enabled or disabled. By default, when specifying a binding type, this property will be enabled. Configuration for api-key, uri, username, password, etc. can be specified and spring-ai will map them to the corresponding properties in the supported system.

To enable cloud binding support, include the following dependency in the application.

<dependency>
   <groupId>org.springframework.ai</groupId>
   <artifactId>spring-ai-spring-cloud-bindings</artifactId>
</dependency>

or to your Gradle build.gradle build file.

dependencies {
    implementation 'org.springframework.ai:spring-ai-spring-cloud-bindings'
}
Refer to the Dependency Management section to add the Spring AI BOM to your build file.
