Just got a message on the file selector icon when I opened ChatGPT that said "Connect apps to access files in ChatGPT, like docs and spreadsheets". Do you have more information on this? Is the only way to accomplish this in a CustomGPT? If so, seems weird that they would put it on the landing screen for the standard model.

Hi @worthy willow. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Based on the information provided in the knowledge sources, it seems that the message you received about connecting apps to access files in ChatGPT might be a general feature notification. However, the specifics about how to connect apps to access files like docs and spreadsheets in ChatGPT are not detailed in the provided sources.
Regarding your question about CustomGPT, it's important to note that Custom GPTs are a part of the ChatGPT product and are not accessible outside of chat.openai.com. If you want to connect an application of any kind to one of OpenAI’s models, you’ll need to use one of the available API endpoints and pay for the usage source (https://community.openai.com/t/705434).
While ChatGPT itself can’t directly create and send you files, you can use the information and structure provided to manually create your spreadsheet in your preferred spreadsheet software. Developers can use the OpenAI API to automate tasks, including generating data that could be inserted into spreadsheets. The actual creation of the files or direct manipulation of software would need to be handled by the application’s logic outside of the GPT API source (https://community.openai.com/t/664565).
For more specific information about connecting apps to ChatGPT, I would recommend checking OpenAI's official documentation or reaching out to their support for further assistance.
Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon:

@tidal wyvern would it be possible to connect my google drive to chatGPT through a customGPT?

Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:
Based on the information available in the provided knowledge sources, it appears that connecting Google Drive directly to ChatGPT, even through a CustomGPT, is not currently possible.
Custom GPTs are a part of the ChatGPT product and are not accessible outside of chat.openai.com. They are for use within ChatGPT Plus, exclusive use to subscribers of the service source (https://community.openai.com/t/545254).
Furthermore, it's important to note that GPT models, including ChatGPT, do not have the ability to access or interact with external systems or APIs, such as Google Drive. They generate responses based on the input they receive and do not have the ability to recall or store information between different sessions or interactions source (https://community.openai.com/t/722468).
