Connecting Discord Apps to Open AI
In today's Tutorial, we will learn how to connect Discord apps to Open AI using Zapier. This integration allows us to automate content moderation by checking if the messages comply with Open AI's usage policies. Zapier, a powerful no-code automation tool, enables us to streamline workflows across 5000+ apps. Let's dive in and set up this workflow step-by-step.
1. Introduction
The first step is to create a Zap, which is an automated workflow in Zapier. We can do this by clicking the "Create Zap" button on the left-HAND side of the screen. As we want Discord to trigger Open AI, we'll select Discord as our trigger app.
2. Setting up Discord as a Trigger
To set up Discord as the trigger app, we need to search for it in the Zapier app directory. Once found, we should select the "New Message Post in Channel" event as our trigger and click "Continue". This means that whenever a message is posted on Discord, it will trigger our workflow.
3. Authenticating Discord with Zapier
During the initial setup of Discord, we need to authenticate it with Zapier. This ensures a secure connection between the two apps. Simply follow the link provided to log into your Discord account. Rest assured that Zapier utilizes industry-standard encryption protocols to protect your data. You can find more information about Zapier's security and trust measures in the description.
4. Configuring Open AI to Check Content Moderation
Now, let's configure Open AI to check content moderation. Search for Open AI in the Zapier app directory and select the "Check Moderation" action. Click "Continue" to proceed. We'll need to authenticate Open AI with Zapier, similar to the Discord authentication process.
5. Authenticating Open AI with Zapier
To authenticate Open AI, go to your Open AI page and click the top-right button on your screen. Select "View API Keys" from the dropdown menu. Generate a new secret key and copy-paste it into the authorization screen of Zapier. This ensures a secure connection between Open AI and Zapier.
6. Using Google Sheets to View Zap Data
To view our Zap data, we'll make use of Google Sheets. Search for Google Sheets in the Zapier app directory and select the "Create spreadsheet Row" action. Click "Continue" and log into your Google account if prompted.
7. Formatting Zap Data in Google Sheets
Once authenticated, assign the trigger app's data into the action app's fields. Specify the spreadsheet and worksheet where you want to receive Zap data. Format the data according to your preference, such as mapping the Discord username to the "Author Username" column and the message content to the "Content" column. Additionally, map the moderation check status to the "Flagged" column.
8. Testing and Enabling the Workflow
Before completing the setup, it's essential to test the workflow to ensure everything is functioning correctly. Click "Test Action" to send a test Zap to Google Sheets. If successful, you're ready to turn on the workflow. From now on, whenever a message is sent on Discord, Open AI will check if the content complies with its usage policies.
