Natural Language APIs

Natural Language API Toolkits (NLAToolkits) permit LangChain Agents to efficiently plan and combine calls across endpoints.

This notebook demonstrates a sample composition of the Speak, Klarna, and Spoonacluar APIs.

First, import dependencies and load the LLM

from langchain.agents import AgentType, initialize_agent
from langchain_community.agent_toolkits import NLAToolkit
from langchain_community.utilities import Requests
from langchain_openai import OpenAI
# Select the LLM to use. Here, we use gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct
llm = OpenAI(
temperature=0, max_tokens=700, model_name="gpt-3.5-turbo-instruct"
) # You can swap between different core LLM's here.

Next, load the Natural Language API Toolkits

speak_toolkit = NLAToolkit.from_llm_and_url(llm, "https://api.speak.com/openapi.yaml")
klarna_toolkit = NLAToolkit.from_llm_and_url(
llm, "https://www.klarna.com/us/shopping/public/openai/v0/api-docs/"
)

Create the Agent

# Slightly tweak the instructions from the default agent
openapi_format_instructions = """Use the following format:

Question: the input question you must answer
Thought: you should always think about what to do
Action: the action to take, should be one of [{tool_names}]
Action Input: what to instruct the AI Action representative.
Observation: The Agent's response
... (this Thought/Action/Action Input/Observation can repeat N times)
Thought: I now know the final answer. User can't see any of my observations, API responses, links, or tools.
Final Answer: the final answer to the original input question with the right amount of detail

When responding with your Final Answer, remember that the person you are responding to CANNOT see any of your Thought/Action/Action Input/Observations, so if there is any relevant information there you need to include it explicitly in your response."""
natural_language_tools = speak_toolkit.get_tools() + klarna_toolkit.get_tools()
mrkl = initialize_agent(
natural_language_tools,
llm,
agent=AgentType.ZERO_SHOT_REACT_DESCRIPTION,
verbose=True,
agent_kwargs={"format_instructions": openapi_format_instructions},
)
mrkl.run(
"I have an end of year party for my Italian class and have to buy some Italian clothes for it"
)

 I need to find out what kind of Italian clothes are available
Action: Open_AI_Klarna_product_Api.productsUsingGET
Action Input: Italian clothes
Observation: The API response contains two products from the Alé brand in Italian Blue. The first is the Alé Colour Block Short Sleeve Jersey Men - Italian Blue, which costs $86.49, and the second is the Alé Dolid Flash Jersey Men - Italian Blue, which costs $40.00.
Thought: I now know what kind of Italian clothes are available and how much they cost.
Final Answer: You can buy two products from the Alé brand in Italian Blue for your end of year party. The Alé Colour Block Short Sleeve Jersey Men - Italian Blue costs $86.49, and the Alé Dolid Flash Jersey Men - Italian Blue costs $40.00.

Use Auth and add more Endpoints

Some endpoints may require user authentication via things like access tokens. Here we show how to pass in the authentication information via the Requests wrapper object.

Since each NLATool exposes a concisee natural language interface to its wrapped API, the top level conversational agent has an easier job incorporating each endpoint to satisfy a user's request.

Adding the Spoonacular endpoints.

  1. Go to the Spoonacular API Console and make a free account.
  2. Click on Profile and copy your API key below.
spoonacular_api_key = ""  # Copy from the API Console
requests = Requests(headers={"x-api-key": spoonacular_api_key})
spoonacular_toolkit = NLAToolkit.from_llm_and_url(
llm,
"https://spoonacular.com/application/frontend/downloads/spoonacular-openapi-3.json",
requests=requests,
max_text_length=1800, # If you want to truncate the response text
)

"Tell the LangChain audience to 'enjoy the meal' in Italian, please!"
)
"In Italian, you can say 'Buon appetito' to someone to wish them to enjoy their meal. This phrase is commonly used in Italy when someone is about to eat, often at the beginning of a meal. It's similar to saying 'Bon appétit' in French or 'Guten Appetit' in German."
