How can I use web search with GPT on Azure using Python?
I want to use web search when calling GPT on Azure using Python.
I can call GPT on Azure using Python as follows:
import os
from openai import AzureOpenAI
endpoint = "https://somewhere.openai.azure.com/"
model_name = "gpt5"
deployment = "gpt5"
subscription_key = ""
api_version = "2024-12-01-preview"
client = AzureOpenAI(
api_version=api_version,
azure_endpoint=endpoint,
api_key=subscription_key,
)
response = client.chat.completions.create(
messages=[
{
"role": "system",
"content": "You are a funny assistant.",
},
{
"role": "user",
"content": "Tell me a joke about birds",
}
],
max_completion_tokens=16384,
model=deployment
)
print(response.choices[0].message.content)
