OpenAI
Overview
Use the OpenAI integration to generate text or code based on a text prompt you provide it. Provide AI capabilities to end-users or leverage it within APIs to enrich your Superblocks APIs. Some examples include flagging fraudulent activities based on customer transaction history, suggesting potential fixes to customer issue tickets for support reps, or generating product descriptions for e-commerce products based on a text prompt.
Setting up OpenAI
1. Add integration
Select OpenAI from the in-app Integrations page.
2. Configure settings
Fill out the form with the following settings:
| Setting | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Name | TRUE | Name that will be displayed to users when selecting this integration in Superblocks |
| API Key | TRUE | API key for your OpenAI account |
| Organization ID | FALSE | Specify which organization should be used for requests |
3. Test and save
Click Test Connection to check that Superblocks can connect to the data source.
If using Superblocks Cloud, add these Superblocks IPs to your allowlist (not necessary for On-Premise-Agent).
4. Set profiles
Optionally, configure different profiles for separate development environments.
OpenAI connected!
Now you can use OpenAI in any
Application,
Workflow, or
Scheduled Job.
Creating OpenAI steps
Connect to your OpenAI integration from Superblocks by creating steps in Application APIs, Workflows and Scheduled Jobs. You can configure a Superblocks OpenAI integration to generate code by sending a prompt. In the Advanced Tuning Parameters section, select which AI Model to use when generating the response and the Max Tokens to be returned.
In the above example, the following prompt produces the Python script below.
Prompt:
Generate a python script that iterates through a list of dictionary and prints each key's value
Python script output:
mylistofdicts = [
{"name": "John", "age": 23},
{"name": "Betty", "age": 27},
{"name": "Casey", "age": 35}
]
for dictionary in mylistofdicts:
for key, value in dictionary.items():
print("{}: {}".format(key, value))

Troubleshooting
The OpenAI Integration is failing with a 500 response A 500 response usually indicates that the OpenAI API is down or unreachable. Check OpenAI’s status page to check availability.
The OpenAI Integration is failing with a 429 response This usually indicates that you’re hitting a quota or rate limit for your API Key. Learn more about OpenAI’s rate limits and quotas and best practices for mitigating errors.
FAQ
I set my Max Tokens to 100. Why didn’t I get 100 words back?
The Max Tokens is based on the number of tokens returned by the model. This is roughly equivalent to words but not one to one.
Which model should I use?
If you’re trying to simulate ChatGPT like behavior or generate code, you’ll want to use the gpt-3.5-turbo or gpt-4 model.
Davinci models have been trained on a robust data set up to June 2021. Because these models have been trained on a large corpus, they can sometimes take several seconds to respond. For faster and cheaper models, consider other language task / completion models.
List of available models per OpenAI Action:
Generate Code
gpt-3.5-turbo(default): Most capable GPT-3.5 model and optimized for chat at 1/10th the cost of text-davinci-003. Will be updated with the latest OpenAI model iteration.gpt-4: OpenAI's most advanced model. ChatGPT+ membership or GPT-4 beta enrollment is required for access
Generate ChatGPT Response
gpt-3.5-turbo(default): Most capable GPT-3.5 model and optimized for chat at 1/10th the cost of text-davinci-003. Will be updated with our latest model iteration.gpt-4: OpenAI's most advanced model. ChatGPT+ membership or GPT-4 beta enrollment is required for access
Generate Text
text-davinci-003(default): Can do any language task with better quality, longer output, and consistent instruction-following than the curie, babbage, or ada models. Also supports inserting completions within text.text-curie-001: Very capable, faster and lower cost than Davinci.text-babbage-001: Capable of straightforward tasks, very fast, and lower cost.text-ada-001: Capable of very simple tasks, usually the fastest model in the GPT-3 series, and lowest cost.
Check Moderation
text-moderation-latest(default): Most capable moderation model. Accuracy will be slightly higher than the stable model.text-moderation-stable: Almost as capable as the latest model, but slightly older.
