How do I do function calling in Azure Openai using the javascript sdk

I want to be able to call functions based on the user input, I could do this with the openai library but can't find a way to do so in the azure openai library

Below is the code from azure openai in python that is able to do what I want to accomplish

As such I want to replicate this code using the javascript sdk link

import openai 
openai.api_type = "azure" 
openai.api_base = "https://XXXXXXXX.openai.azure.com/" 
openai.api_version = "2023-07-01-preview" 
openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY") 
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(             
    engine="gpt-35-turbo-XXX",             
    model="gpt-35-turbo-0613-XXXX"             
    messages=messages,             
    functions=functions,             
    function_call="auto",         
)

I tried this

const response = await openai.getChatCompletions(
deploymentid,       
messages,    
{  function_call: functions }

and

const response = await openai.getChatCompletions(
deploymentid,       
messages,    
functions )

I couldn't find anything on the documentation for this as well

Solution

  • The updated Azure OpenAI Javascript documentation now incorporates support for functions and function calls.

    You can find the relevant documentation at the following link, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/javascript/api/@azure/openai/getchatcompletionsoptions?view=azure-node-preview

    It is recommended that you ensure your Azure OpenAI library is updated to the most recent version.(https://www.npmjs.com/package/@azure/openai?activeTab=readme)
