I was fully aware this was a likely possibility when I started this project, but I hope this POC can show the value in API access to custom GPTs. I was working on a project that would allow you to manage your GPTs as git projects. To do this, I needed to use the API used in the browser. This was clearly not meant to be supported but I attempted anyway and had some success… until it was put behind Cloudflare browser check some time last weekend. > **[GitHub - TechSquidTV/makeGPT: A command-line utility for creating, managing,...](https://github.com/TechSquidTV/makeGPT)** > > A command-line utility for creating, managing, and publishing your custom OpenAI GPT agents - GitHub - TechSquidTV/makeGPT: A command-line utility for creating, managing, and publishing your custom... I’d love to continue the project officially, but it will require official API access. ---

Also interested in those possibilities. Is this something that will be released? ---

That was the plan. I try to manage my GPT files and info locally and “sync” it. But at the moment that is no longer a possibility ---

It can not exist at the moment due to no official API. I was using a “hack” that no longer works ---

I gave chatgpt 4 the pages to the api i was trying to connect to and asked it to build a schema based on what im trying to do . Came out great ---

Have you tried this? does it work well? Like GPTs? you just host on your site? @shawnharris963 ---

This is for creating an Assistant via the API. It doesn’t have anything to do with a Custom GPT. ---
