Hi @plush sandal. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:
Creating a custom GPT involves a few steps:
- Navigate to chatgpt.com/gpts/editor (https://chatgpt.com/gpts/editor) or select your name and then “My GPTs”.
- Click on “Create a GPT”.
- In the Create tab, you can message the GPT Builder to help you build a new GPT. You can say something like, "Make a creative who helps generate visuals for new products" or "Make a software engineer who helps format my code."
- To name and set the description of your GPT, go to the Configure tab. Here, you will also be able to select the actions you would like your GPT to take, like browsing the web or creating images.
- When you’re ready to publish your GPT, select “Publish” and share it with other people if you’d like.
In the GPT Editor, you can configure more detailed settings for your GPT. At the top, there are two tabs labeled Create and Configure. Create allows you to message the GPT Builder to help you build a new GPT. If you would like to provide more detailed instructions, you can set them in the Configure tab.
For example, if you're creating a GPT for weather forecast, you can provide instructions like:
**Context**: A user needs information related to a weather forecast of a specific location.
**Instructions**:
1. The user will provide a lat-long point or a general location or landmark (e.g. New York City, the White House). If the user does not provide one, ask for the relevant location
2. If the user provides a general location or landmark, convert that into a lat-long coordinate. If required, browse the web to look up the lat-long point.
3. Run the "getPointData" API action and retrieve back the gridId, gridX, and gridY parameters.
4. Apply those variables as the office, gridX, and gridY variables in the "getGridpointForecast" API action to retrieve back a forecast
5. Use that forecast to answer the user's question
Additional Notes:
- Assume the user uses US weather units (e.g. Farenheit) unless otherwise specified
- If the user says "Let's get started" or "What do I do?", explain the purpose of this Custom GPT
You can also choose to publish your GPT to the public store, but you must first verify your Builder Profile. Your Builder Profile can be accessed from your profile settings or via the “Update” panel when editing a GPT. You can verify your Builder Profile with either your name or a website domain. After you’ve verified, you’ll be able to publish your GPT for “Everyone”.
Please note that usage is measured by messages when using ChatGPT. Messages in the GPT builder and GPT preview also count towards usage.
For more detailed instructions, you can refer to the **Creating a GPT** (<https://help.openai.com/en/articles/8554397-creating-a-gpt>) help article.
