Struct ToolCall

pub struct ToolCall {
    pub id: String,
    pub type_name: String,
    pub function: Function,
}

Represents a tool call made by an OpenAI model.

Tool calls are generated when an OpenAI model decides to invoke a function or tool as part of its response. This structure contains the metadata necessary to identify and execute the requested function.

Fields

• id - Unique identifier for this tool call
• type_name - The type of tool call (typically “function”)
• function - The function details including name and arguments

Examples

use openai_tools::common::message::ToolCall;
use openai_tools::common::function::Function;

// Tool calls are typically received from OpenAI API responses
// and contain function invocation details

Fields

id: String

Unique identifier for this tool call

type_name: String

The type of tool call (e.g., “function”)

function: Function

The function to be called with its arguments
