Session Goal

The aim of this session was to refactor and test various CLI and Python flows, particularly focusing on integrating and troubleshooting the OpenAI API within the PromptFlow environment.

Key Activities

  • Conducted battle testing for CLI flows using the fp command, focusing on the basic-with-connection flow.
  • Adapted a Python flow example to fit a custom setup, involving dependency installation and environment variable configuration.
  • Fixed a function entry-point test by resolving file path errors and enhancing test coverage.
  • Troubleshot a ValueError in AzureOpenAI, refactoring the code to use OpenAIConnection instead.
  • Refactored a Python script to use the OpenAI API, including environment variable setup and testing.
  • Ensured compatibility and configuration of PromptFlow with YAML schemas for OpenAI integration.
  • Diagnosed and resolved a 404 error with the OpenAI API, ensuring correct SDK usage and environment setup.
  • Confirmed successful execution of flows, though noted potential issues with empty outputs.
  • Tested flex flow commands and confirmed proper functioning of PromptFlow UI and terminal outputs.
  • Analyzed PromptFlow run history for optimization insights and error analysis.
  • Created a battle test checklist for async chat flow testing.
  • Diagnosed and fixed OpenAI connection issues in PromptFlow.
  • Adapted code for OpenAI API integration, moving from Azure’s configuration.
  • Diagnosed API key issues in PromptFlow, enhancing error handling and diagnostics.

Achievements

  • Successfully integrated the OpenAI API within PromptFlow, resolving multiple connection and configuration issues.
  • Improved flow execution reliability and troubleshooting processes.

Pending Tasks

  • Investigate token usage discrepancies leading to empty outputs during flow execution.
  • Further optimize PromptFlow configurations for enhanced performance.
