# MuleSoft AI Chain Connector 2.0 XML and Maven Support

> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Although you can manually code a Mule app in XML, it is more efficient to use Anypoint Code Builder
or Studio:

- If you manually code a Mule runtime engine (Mule) app in XML, either from the Anypoint Code
  Builder or Studio XML editor, or from a text editor, you can access the connector from your app by
  adding reference statements to both your XML Mule flow and the Apache Maven `pom.xml` file.

- If you add the connector in Anypoint Code Builder or Studio, the XML is automatically populated
  the code with the connector’s namespace and schema location and it also adds a dependency to the
  `pom.xml` file.

## Add a Namespace for the Connector

Paste the following code inside the `mule` tag of the header of your configuration XML:

```xml
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ms-aichain
http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ms-aichain/current/mule-ms-aichain.xsd
```

This example shows how the namespace statements are placed in the `<mule>` XML block:

```xml
<mule xmlns:ms-aichain="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ms-aichain"
    xmlns:http="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http"
	xmlns="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core"
	xmlns:doc="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/documentation"
	xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
	xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core
	http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/core/current/mule.xsd
    http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http
	http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/http/current/mule-http.xsd
    http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ms-aichain
	http://www.mulesoft.org/schema/mule/ms-aichain/current/mule-ms-aichain.xsd">
```

## Add a POM File Dependency

The Apache Maven `pom.xml` file generated by Anypoint Code Builder and Studio contains dependencies
for a Mule app. If you code a Mule app manually, include this XML snippet in your `pom.xml` file to
enable access to this connector:

```xml
<dependency>
  <groupId>com.mulesoft.connectors</groupId>
  <artifactId>mule4-aichain-connector</artifactId>
  <version>x.x.x</version>
  <classifier>mule-plugin</classifier>
</dependency>
```

Replace `x.x.x` with the version that corresponds to the connector you are using.

To get the most up-to-date `pom.xml` file information:

1.  Go to [Anypoint Exchange](https://www.mulesoft.com/exchange/).

2.  In Exchange, click **Login** and supply your Anypoint Platform username and password.

3.  In Exchange, search for `muleSoft ai chain`.

4.  Select the connector.

5.  Click **Dependency Snippets** near the upper right of the screen.
