As of June 2023, function calling was added to the OpenAI API when using the /v1/chat/completions endpoint in GPT4 & GPT3.5 turbo. Function calling is the ability for developers to describe functions to the model, make calls out to external APIs and infer from input if a function call needs to be made, and if …

This time, I will be attempting to persist(insert) the incoming log information into an Azure Cosmos database container, direct from my Azure Function in VS Code. Disclaimer: This blog is more of a …

The final code for the Azure Functions element can be found on https://github.com/Wabbbit/AzLog Part one: Setup, Creating my first function, forwarding NLOG events and deploying to Azure within VS Code. Part two: persisting the incoming data using Cosmos DB. …
EDIT: This was updated from an original article on 2013/15. There is an additional pre-requisite below (See red) for doing this with 2017/19. I had some pending changes recently on the wrong branch within TFS in Visual Studio 2017. Rather than clone all my changes in the other branch, I wanted to “migrate” my changes. …
