This module allows to use OpenAI connections directly as AI Connection.

It is quite interesting because systems like LiteLLM allows us to work only like OpenAI, simplifying the work.

AI-generated from the code · Odoo 18.0

Adds OpenAI as a connection type in the AI Connection settings, letting users configure an API key, model, URL and temperature to chat with OpenAI-compatible services.

This module extends the existing AI Connection feature so that OpenAI (or any service that speaks the same API, such as LiteLLM) can be used as the AI provider.

On the AI connection form, a new "OpenAI" page appears when the connection kind is set to OpenAI. There users fill in the model name, the service URL, the temperature and the OpenAI API key. The API key field is restricted to system administrators, so only they can see and edit it.

Once configured, the connection can send messages to the AI service. The module automatically converts attached files into a format the AI can read: text files are sent as text, images are sent as images, and other files are sent as file attachments. It also passes the available tools (functions) to the AI so the assistant can request them, and it records how many prompt and completion tokens were used.

The module only adds a new option to the existing ai.connection model and its form view; it does not create new menus or models of its own. It requires the Python openai library to be installed on the server.
