Using the Azure Open AI Proxy outside of a notebook

Some of you might want to use the Azure Open AI proxy outside of a notebook. Maybe in some custom code or in Powerautomate. 

It's easy, if you know the url...

1) use the correct url to post a chat completion request: https://polite-ground-030dc3103.4.azurestaticapps.net/api/v1/openai/deployments/gpt-35-turbo-16k/chat/completions

replace the model name with whatever one you want to play with. Careful, the /chat/ part of the url is paramount

2) add a header to the request: api-key

3) add your api key as the header value

4) construct the body using the messages syntax. a good example can be found here: https://microsoft.github.io/azure-openai-service-proxy/raw-api-access/chat-completion/

careful! the last link has an outdated url structure. make sure to use 

https://polite-ground-030dc3103.4.azurestaticapps.net/api/v1/openai/deployments/{model-name}/chat/completions

and voilla you can use the openai api also in other places like powerautomate 🙂
