What?
A quick article on my adaptation of some code posted by Poorvik Palanikumar on the Zoho Community Forums to connect a ZohoCliq to the OpenAI API and ChatGPT... Note that I have another article for those who want to integrate ChatGPT with ZohoZIA.

Why?
Previously, I would edit the message handlers of a Cliq Bot I created but it would only understand the questions I have programmed it to and respond with the responses I programmed it to answer with. Any variations of the questions it did not understand, it would return a response similar to Siri or Ask Google where it includes the keywords in a "Search the web..." task.

ChatGPT by OpenAI is viral at the time of print and although the solution below only connects to the OpenAI API, it is not currently connected to ChatGPT. The plus side however is that it is connected to the Internet unlike ChatGPT which only has information up to 2021.

How?
The basics of setting this up would be to setup a bot in ZohoCliq and then to edit either a message handler or participation handler. As for the usage, simply ask the Cliq Bot a question and it will forward the query and respond with the response from the OpenAI API.
