How to Disable Confirmation Requirement for External Service Calls in Custom GPT with Actions?

Hi everyone,

I’m using actions in my custom GPT model through ChatGPT, and I encounter a bit of an issue that I’m hoping to resolve. Every time I attempt to send data to an external service using an action, I’m prompted to confirm this manually.

I’ve noticed that in the “GPT’s privacy settings” for the custom chat, there’s an option to select “Always Allow,” which seems like it should bypass the repeated confirmation prompts. However, despite setting it to “Always Allow,” I’m still getting the manual confirmation request each time I trigger an action to send data to an external service.

I’ve attached some screenshots illustrating the settings:

  1. Confirmation prompt I’m trying to avoid.
  2. “Always Allow” option in privacy settings.
  3. Privacy settings access through the chat menu.

My goal is to configure it such that once I allow actions in a specific chat, I no longer need to manually confirm each subsequent request. How can I achieve this for a particular custom chat, so it automatically allows the external calls without prompting every time?

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

+1. Seems super limiting - it stops us using voice chat for trusted customGPTs with actions.

Yeah, its super limiting in user experience I agree. Leaving this reminder here to be noticed :wink:

It might be better to prompt once for all at the start of the conversation. It is indeed totally breaking the voice experience. When prompted once, you must start a new chat to keep going which is of course not the point!
