Weekend Project: Integrating with the OpenAI Assistant API

I've been working with the OpenAI API a lot lately in other platforms, so I wanted to see if I could get the same integration working in FileMaker Pro. I got the basics working and wanted to share it with the FileMaker community as a starter template for integrating with the OpenAI API.

The app saves conversations so you can switch between them and continue to add new comments and interact with the assistant. Just copy the app and add your API key and assistant_id to get started.

I also wrote a guide on how to create the Assistant and API key in OpenAI, and published the app on GitHub. I chose The Unlicense license, so there are no restrictions, not even for business use. Hope this helps others get started with the OpenAI API!

UPDATE! I just used this starter app to build an AI powered chart generator that converts natural language queries into data visualizations based on your own data.

I made a demo video but it's too big to embed here, so I shared it on the FileMaker Sub-Reddit.
