Hi @grizzled sentinel. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
OpenAI has introduced GPTs (custom versions of ChatGPT) and Actions, which build on the core ideas of plugins while also introducing many new features. These GPTs allow anyone to create a tailored version of ChatGPT for specific tasks and then share that creation with others [source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/actions)].
As of November 6th, OpenAI is no longer accepting new plugin submissions. However, existing plugin developers are allowed to update their plugins for the time being. OpenAI encourages plugin developers to create GPTs with custom Actions [source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/plugins/review)].
In terms of functionality, Actions, like plugins, allow GPTs to connect to a custom API. There are some differences between Actions and plugins, such as the introduction of the "consequential" flag, support for multiple authentication schemas, and an updated store process with the GPT marketplace superseding the plugin store [source (https://platform.openai.com/docs/actions)].
