VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor not generating default client id

[saranshbansal]

Spring AI version: 1.0.0-M5

As per official docs:
https://docs.spring.io/spring-ai/reference/1.0/api/chatclient.html#_advisor_configuration_in_chatclient

VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor: Set a default conversation ID to be used if none is provided in the context.

However, when im trying to run the below code, it throws an error:
The conversationId must not be empty!

VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor vectorStoreAdvisor = new VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor(
				pgVectorStore,
				conversationId, // sending null from client
				chatRequestDto.chatHistoryWindowSize()
		);

Do we have to pass some random conversation id ourself for the first time? It contradicts with the official docs.

What is the right way to implement a conversational API as the conversation id is null for the first time.

@saranshbansal thanks for reporting this issue. It should be fixed in the current version of Spring AI (1.0.0-M8), could you confirm that?

In 1.0.0-M8, the VectorStoreChatMemoryAdvisor can be instantiated via a Builder object, which configures a default conversation ID if one is not specified at instantiation time.
