Component format

A Dapr conversation.yaml component file has the following structure:

apiVersion: dapr.io/v1alpha1
kind: Component
metadata:
  name: ollama
spec:
  type: conversation.ollama
  metadata:
  - name: model
    value: llama3.2:latest
  - name: cacheTTL
    value: 10m

{{% alert title="Warning" color="warning" %}} The above example uses secrets as plain strings. It is recommended to use a secret store for the secrets, as described [here]({{< ref component-secrets.md >}}). {{% /alert %}}

Spec metadata fields

model	N	The Ollama LLM to use. Defaults to llama3.2:latest.	phi4:latest
cacheTTL	N	A time-to-live value for a prompt cache to expire. Uses Golang duration format.	10m
