# OpenAI

With our new OpenAI integration, we allow you to unleash the power of AI in your day-to-day processed to auto-generate content, responses, tag data or extract structured data from text.

## Connecting to your MySQL Database

To connect your MySQL database, follow the steps below:

1. Go to **Data Management** and click on "**New source**" to create a new data source. 
2. Select **OpenAI** from the list of available data sources.
3. Name your data source connection and provide the connection details:

<table><thead><tr><th width="201">Setting</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>API key</strong></td><td>Your unique API key to link your OpenAI account to your Uify apps. Your API key can be found <a href="https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys">here</a>.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Organization ID</strong></td><td>If your company has an account of their own, you can provide the org id to count requests towards the organization API quota instead of your account's quota.</td></tr></tbody></table>

4. Click on "**Test connection"** to ensure that your connection works reliably and save your data source connection with "**Connect**".

Note: You can configure the data source for two different environments, Staging and Production. You can find more information about it [here](broken://pages/FM88Izx8RDNtGtuF6cvH).&#x20;

## Action modes

Like any other integration, you can use the OpenAI integration by creating an OpenAI action in your  editor.

We support several modes from a highly customizable manual mode which allows you to specify all aspects of the model inference to use-case specific modes like the "Text to structured data" mode that only asks you for the most important inputs to handle the task out of the box. There is one subpage for each mode.
