Azure OpenAI

This section outlines how you can set up a LLM action using Azure OpenAI.

Where to find

LLM Actions allow you to integrate with a large language model provider, for example, Azure OpenAI. It can be found under the Integrate section of a specific scenario. Once you select 'Create an LLM action' you will then have the opportunity to create the LLM action of your choice. Select Azure OpenAI to start setting up your OpenAI integration.

What you'll need

To set up an integration between your LLM action, and an Azure OpenAI model, you will need to create an Azure OpenAI Service resource within your Azure account.

How to create an Azure OpenAI Service resource

You will also need to create a model deployment within the service.

To configure your Azure OpenAI LLM action you will need to provide the following three elements:

• The Azure OpenAI API Key is an API key associated with your service. This can be found in your Azure portal by navigating to your Azure OpenAI Service resource, and selecting "Resource Management" and then "Keys and Endpoint". You can use either Key 1 or Key 2.

• The Azure OpenAI Resource Name is the name of the resource in Azure.

• The Azure OpenAI Deployment Name is the name of the deployment. It's important to note that the deployment name is defined when you create the deployment, and will not be the name of the underlying OpenAI model.

Using the Azure OpenAI LLM action in your scenario

To use your Azure OpenAI LLM action in your scenario, you can add it to an intent in the Designer.

Select the desired intent in the designer and click "Add conditions, actions & attributes" to reveal the Action section

When your scenario matches this intent, the prompts will be sent to the LLM and any output attributes will be populated.

To display the LLM's response text in your scenario, you will need to use the llm_response attribute (or any other desired output attributes) within a message. Within a message, create a new text block, set the text to {llm_response} and click "Save Message".

Testing the OpenAI LLM action in your scenario

You can check if your action is successful by testing your conversation in the Preview (Test - Preview) and checking the user context on the right side of your screen. When you match the intent with the action then the user context will update to include action_success: true as well as any other output attributes, such as llm_response.
