Hi @subtle shuttle. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

#

To create a chatbot using the OpenAI Realtime API, you can follow the steps outlined in the knowledge sources. Below is a Python example using the OpenAI Realtime API with WebSockets for a text-only chat. This example demonstrates how to create a session, send a user message, and receive a response from the model.

import openai

# 1. Create or configure your OpenAI client (assuming you have an API key).
client = openai.OpenAI(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

# 2. Optionally create a session with some configuration if you want:
session = client.beta.realtime.sessions.create(
    model="gpt-4o-realtime-preview",
    instructions="You are a friendly assistant. Respond with short answers.",
    modalities=["text"],  # We only want text responses for this example
)

# 3. Open a Realtime WebSocket connection
with client.beta.realtime.connect(model="gpt-4o-realtime-preview") as connection:
    # 4. (Optional) Immediately update session config if you want
    connection.session.update(session={
        "instructions": "Please respond in very short phrases.",
        # other fields you want to override, like temperature, etc.
    })

    # 5. Send a user message into the conversation
    connection.conversation.item.create(item={
        "type": "user", 
        "text": "Hello! How are you?"
    })

    # 6. Instruct the model to create a response
    connection.response.create()

    # 7. Receive events. We'll read until we get the final "response.done" event.
    for event in connection:
        print(f"Received event: {event.type}")
        if event.type == "conversation.item.created":
            # Might contain the text or partial text from the assistant
            if event.item and event.item.type == "assistant" and event.item.text:
                print("Assistant says:", event.item.text)

#

if event.type == "response.done":
# The model finished replying
break


This code sets up a simple text-based chat using the OpenAI Realtime API. It creates a session, sends a user message, and listens for the model's response. Make sure to replace `"YOUR_API_KEY"` with your actual OpenAI API key.

For more details, you can refer to the [Realtime API documentation](<https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/realtime>).

@raw urchin can u provide me full code for WebSocket

raw urchinBOT Feb 24, 2025, 12:40 PM

#

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:

#

To set up a WebSocket connection with the OpenAI Realtime API, you can use the websocket-client library in Python. Below is a complete example of how to connect to the Realtime API using WebSockets, send a request, and handle incoming messages.

# example requires websocket-client library:
# pip install websocket-client

import os
import json
import websocket

# Set your OpenAI API key
OPENAI_API_KEY = os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY")

# Define the WebSocket URL with the model ID
url = "wss://api.openai.com/v1/realtime?model=gpt-4o-realtime-preview-2024-12-17"
headers = [
    "Authorization: Bearer " + OPENAI_API_KEY,
    "OpenAI-Beta: realtime=v1"
]

# Define the on_open function to send a request when the connection opens
def on_open(ws):
    print("Connected to server.")
    
    event = {
        "type": "response.create",
        "response": {
            "modalities": ["text"],
            "instructions": "Please assist the user."
        }
    }
    ws.send(json.dumps(event))

# Define the on_message function to handle incoming messages
def on_message(ws, message):
    data = json.loads(message)
    print("Received event:", json.dumps(data, indent=2))

# Create a WebSocketApp instance and run it
ws = websocket.WebSocketApp(
    url,
    header=headers,
    on_open=on_open,
    on_message=on_message,
)

ws.run_forever()

This code connects to the OpenAI Realtime API using WebSockets, sends a request to generate a text response, and prints any received events. Make sure to replace OPENAI_API_KEY with your actual API key, and ensure the websocket-client library is installed in your environment.

#

For more details, you can refer to the Realtime API with WebSockets documentation.

@raw urchin can u provide me initial session code

raw urchinBOT Feb 24, 2025, 12:41 PM

#

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:

#

To create an initial session with the OpenAI Realtime API, you can use the following code snippet. This example demonstrates how to set up a session with specific instructions and modalities using a POST request.

curl -X POST <https://api.openai.com/v1/realtime/sessions> \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $OPENAI_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "gpt-4o-realtime-preview-2024-12-17",
    "modalities": ["audio", "text"],
    "instructions": "You are a friendly assistant."
  }'

This code uses curl to send a POST request to the OpenAI API, creating a session with both audio and text modalities and setting the initial instructions for the assistant. Replace $OPENAI_API_KEY with your actual API key.

For more information, you can refer to the Realtime API documentation.

@raw urchin is this custom function is correct tools = [{
"type": "function",
"name": "end_call",
"description": "Hang up the call",
"parameters": {}
}]
Harshith — Today at 11:25
yes
Tharun — Today at 11:26
but its correctly storing in db like this
tools = [
{
"type": "function",
"function": {
"name": "end_call",
"description": "Hang up the call",
"parameters": {}
},
"strict": true
}
]
function is not required

raw urchinBOT Feb 25, 2025, 5:58 AM

#

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books:

#

Based on the information provided, it seems there is a discrepancy between how the custom function is defined and how it is stored in the database. The correct format for defining a tool of type function should include a nested function object. Here's how you can define it correctly:

tools = [
    {
        "type": "function",
        "function": {
            "name": "end_call",
            "description": "Hang up the call",
            "parameters": {}
        },
        "strict": True
    }
]

Explanation:

Type: The type key should be set to "function", indicating that this tool is a function.
Function Object: The function key should contain an object with the name, description, and parameters keys.
- Name: The name of the function, e.g., "end_call".
- Description: A brief description of what the function does, e.g., "Hang up the call".
- Parameters: An object defining the parameters the function accepts. If there are no parameters, it can be an empty object {}.
Strict: The strict key is optional and can be set to True if you want the model to strictly adhere to the schema defined in the parameters.

If the `function` key is not required in your specific implementation, you might need to adjust your database schema or the logic that processes these tools to accommodate the expected format. However, based on the standard format, the nested `function` object is typically required.
