Reviewing the OpenAI API endpoints
Everything that we've looked at doing through the Playground can also be done via the OpenAI API – and then some. In fact, the Playground is just a web interface that calls the OpenAI API. It is simply exposing functionality that the API provides using a graphical interface. So, in this section, we'll review the OpenAI functionality that's available through the API endpoints. You'll be familiar with the functionality because you've used it through the Playground, but after this section, you'll know how to access specific functionality in code.
Using the OpenAI API, you can do the following through the available endpoints:
- Create completions
- List available engines
- Get engine details
- Perform semantic searches
All of the OpenAI API endpoints require authentication. So, they can't just be called with a browser, like the Open-Notify API that we looked at earlier. But we'll hold...
