- The Assistants API is a developer product offered by OpenAI that allows developers to build AI assistants within their own applications. An Assistant has instructions and can leverage models, tools, and knowledge to respond to user queries. The Assistants API currently supports three types of tools: Code Interpreter, Retrieval, and Function calling ¹.
The Assistants API enables developers to easily build powerful AI assistants within their apps. This API removes the need to manage conversation history and adds access to OpenAI-hosted tools like Code Interpreter and Retrieval. The API also supports improved function-calling for 3rd party tools ².
To access the Assistants API, you can visit the OpenAI website and sign up for an API key. Once you have an API key, you can start building your own AI assistants using the API ².
