How to integrate ChatGPT with Power Apps

Integrating ChatGPT with Power Apps. Here's an overview of the steps you need to follow:



  1. Set up a ChatGPT API: First, you'll need to create an API for ChatGPT. You can use a cloud-based service such as AWS, Google Cloud, or Microsoft Azure to host your API. Alternatively, you can use a pre-built API platform such as RapidAPI, which provides pre-built ChatGPT APIs that you can use.

  2. Create a custom connector: In Power Apps, you can create a custom connector to connect to external data sources such as APIs. To create a custom connector for ChatGPT, you'll need to provide the connector with the following information: the API endpoint, authentication method, and any custom headers or query parameters that your API requires.

  3. Use the connector in your app: Once you've created your custom connector, you can use it to integrate ChatGPT into your Power App. You can add a chatbot control to your app, configure it to use your custom connector, and specify the actions that you want the chatbot to perform.

Here's an example of how to create a simple chatbot in Power Apps using the ChatGPT API:

  1. Create a new canvas app in Power Apps.

  2. Add a new screen to the app, and then add a text input control and a button control to the screen.

  3. In the button control's OnSelect property, add the following formula:


This formula clears the text input control and adds the user's input to a collection called ChatHistory.

  1. Add a Gallery control to the screen, and set its Items property to the ChatHistory collection.

  2. Add a new custom connector to the app, and provide it with the API endpoint for your ChatGPT API.

  3. Add a chatbot control to the screen, and configure it to use your custom connector.

  4. In the chatbot control's OnNewMessage property, add the following formula:




This formula sends the user's input to the ChatGPT API, retrieves the API's response, and adds the response to the ChatHistory collection with a "Bot" tag.

  1. Save and run your app to test your chatbot.

Note that this is just a simple example, and you'll likely need to customize the chatbot to meet your specific requirements. However, this should give you an idea of how to integrate ChatGPT with Power Apps using a custom connector.
