Are you a developer?

If no, go to Wix marketplace and hire a dev.

If yes, then you can do so with:

1. Install NPM module.

2. Write backend exported function

3. Write frontend code with UI elements to allow user to call the backend API.

I have figured out how to connect to openai but I’m getting error 401.  
See my code below, please help.

**import** wixSecretsBackend **from** ‘wix-secrets-backend’ ;  
**import** { fetch } **from** ‘wix-fetch’ ;

export const askOpenAi = **async** () =\> {  
**const** { Configuration , OpenAIApi } = require ( “openai” );  
**const** configuration = **new** Configuration ({  
apiKey : wixSecretsBackend . getSecret ( “OpenAi” ),  
});  
**const** openai = **new** OpenAIApi ( Configuration );  
**const** prompt = `input: What is human life expectancy in the United States? output:`  
**const** response = **await** openai . createCompletion ( “text-davinci-001” , {  
prompt : prompt ,  
temperature : 0 ,  
max\_tokens : 100 ,  
top\_p : 1 ,  
frequency\_penalty : 0 ,  
presence\_penalty : 0 ,  
stop : [“input:”],  
});  
**return** response . data ;  
}

Hey @vishalkasbe40

It can be difficult to setup AI chats with code. With [Chat with GPT Canvas](https://www.wix.com/app-market/chat-with-gpt-canvas), you can do the same by simply adding the widget to any page you like. It supports normal conversation and docs editing well. Give it a try!
