datasette-chatgpt-plugin
A Datasette plugin that turns a Datasette instance into a ChatGPT plugin - so you can use ChatGPT to ask questions of your data.
For more on this project, see Building a ChatGPT plugin to ask questions of data hosted in Datasette.
⚠️ Warning: ChatGPT can still hallucinate results using this plugin! See this issue for more details of this problem.
Installation
Install this plugin in the same environment as Datasette, on a deployed instance.
datasette install datasette-chatgpt-plugin
Or if you are using datasette publish
to deploy Datasette:
datasette publish cloudrun/vercel/fly/heroku data.db \
--install datasette-chatgpt-plugin
Usage
Once installed, your Datasette instance will work with the new ChatGPT plugins system - provided you have access to that preview.
Click Plugins -> Plugin store -> Install an unverified plugin
and enter the URL of your Datasette instance.
If this doesn't work, try Develop my own plugin -> My manifest is ready
instead and then paste in your URL.
ChatGPT will discover the plugin by hitting the /.well-known/ai-plugin.json
endpoint.
You can then ask it questions! Some starting examples:
- Show a list of tables (this is always good to start with as it ensures ChatGPT knows which tables are available)
- Show the first 10 rows of the
mytable
table
This plugin currently exposes a single database - the first database attached to your instance.
