OpenAI and Google Workspace Series

Introduction

• New series focusing on integrating OpenAI API with Google Workspace tools
• Previous topics included using ChatGPT with Google Sheets and blog summaries

Problem Statement

• Difficulty in generating summaries for paragraphs in Google Docs manually
• Process involves copying paragraphs into ChatGPT for summarization

Solution Overview

• Automate summary generation using OpenAI API and Google Apps Script within Google Docs

Tutorial Steps

1. Obtain API Key

   • Go to platform.openapi.com
   • Locate the API Keys section
   • Create a new secret key named "Google Docs Summary Key" and copy it

2. Open Google Docs

   • Access the Google Doc that contains the paragraph to summarize
   • Go to Extensions and open App Script Editor

3. Create Custom Menu

   • Define a function called onOpen
   • Create a custom menu in the document UI:
     • UI.createMenu('Custom Menu')
     • Add menu item: addItem('Summarize Selected Paragraph', 'summaryFunctionName')
   • Execute code to make it visible in the Google Doc

4. Develop Summary Function

   • Declare API Key within the script
   • Create a new function called summaryDoc(paragraph)
   • Set model ID (e.g., text-davinci-002)
   • Define parameters:
     • Max tokens (e.g., 200)
     • Temperature (for response accuracy)
   • Construct payload with model, prompt, temperature, and max tokens
   • Set options for fetch request: method (POST), headers (content type and authorization), and payload
   • Fetch response from OpenAI API and extract summary

5. Access Selected Paragraph

   • Create function to access the selected text in Google Doc
   • Use documentApp.getActiveDocument() and getSelection()
   • Retrieve text from selection
   • Pass text to summaryDoc() function

6. Output Summary to Document

   • Append summary to the active document body
   • Final output should show the generated summary at the end of the document

Running the Script

• Click on the Run button for onOpen function
• Allow permissions for the script to access Google Docs
• Select text in Google Doc, go to custom menu, and click on "Summarize Selected Paragraph"
• Wait for the summary to be generated and appended to the document
