OpenAI Agent Builder / Widget Actions
I cannot figure out how to incorporate actions from a widget into my workflow. Apparently it is not possible within the agent builder (?) - so I have also tried finding a solution within Vercel. But I still have had no luck.
Example workflow (inside agent builder)
  1. User: "Write me a summary about my project on 43rd Street"
  2. Agent: *searches vector store*
  3. Agent: *identifies 3 projects on 43rd Street*
  4. Agent: *Displays widget of results* (Each widget has a "select" button)
  5. Agent: "I found three projects on 43rd Street, which would you like me to summarize?"
  6. User: *Presses button from X result inside widget*
  7. Workflow recognizes user's selection, and then writes the summary based on the vector store data from said project
Context:
  • My widget button carries "onClickAction={{ type: "project.select", handler: "server", payload: { id: p.id } }}"
  • the widget itself is attached to an agent that responds with search results from the vector store
  • I am embedding my chatkit through Vercel
  • I maybe have 12 months of experience learning this industry and I'd argue half of that was spent going in circles with ChatGPT or Claude
My example might not be a valid use-case for a reactive button. But I just don't understand how the agent workflow or any workflow for that matter recognizes a button action / trigger. If anyone can show me this it would mean the world!
