The OpenAI’s ChatGPT API can be easily integrated into your mobile application, regardless of the platform (Android, iOS, etc.), by using HTTP requests. Here is a generalized step by step process:
1. Generate an API Key: Sign up with OpenAI and get your API Key.
1. Create a Function to Send Post Requests: In your mobile app code, create a function to send HTTP POST request to the endpoint `https://api.openai.com/v1/engines/davinci-codex/completions`. Make sure to set the headers in your request to include `‘Authorization’: ‘Bearer YOUR_OPEN_AI_KEY’` and `‘Content-Type’: ‘application/json’`.
1. Pass Data to Function: You need to pass the conversation to this function in the form of an organized array of message objects. Each object should have a ‘role’ that can be ‘system’, ‘user’, or ‘assistant’, and ‘content’ containing the actual message of that role. An example input might be `{‘messages’:[{‘role’:‘user’, ‘content’:‘tell me a joke’}]}`.
1. Capture the Response: The server’s response will come in JSON format and should be parsed to extract the assistant’s reply. This usually is under `response[‘choices’]0[‘message’][‘content’]`.
1. Build UI: Design the User Interface to display the conversation where users chat with the app using text inputs and read the assistant’s messages.
Here is a python-based example but note that this might look different based on your mobile app language, kotlin/java for Android, swift for iOS, etc.
```
import openai
import json
openai.api_key = ‘YOUR_OPEN_AI_KEY’
def ask_gpt3():
response = openai.Completion.create(
engine=“text-davinci-002”,
prompt=‘Translate the following English text to French: “{text}”’,
temperature=0.5,
max_tokens=60
)
return response.choices0.text.strip()
```
It’s important to handle network interactions and possible errors correctly for smooth user experience. Consult the coding languages of the app and appropriate libraries for HTTP requests and async activities.
Remember to handle user data responsibly, especially in light of any applicable privacy laws. For more details always check the API’s documentation or terms of use.
