Uploading Documents through the OpenAI API

[gentle cosmos]

I would like to upload a document through the OpenAI API, as is possible in the chat interface, so that I can ask GPT to retrieve specific information from that document. I have found GPT is really good at it in the chat interface and think it would be a great way to structure unstructured data at scale. However, not sure if this is possible as I am a relatively novice programmer (but have managed to built an LLM/API-based application). Would I do this through ChatCompletions or Assistant? Any help is appreciated!

Heyy, this is absolutely possible with the openai assistants api. YOu have an overall guide & example here: https://cookbook.openai.com/examples/assistants_api_overview_python . Let me know if you have any other question.
