I am exploring using the Apps SDK and had a question around the window.openai.sendFollowupMessage API in particular.
My use case is a little complex - basically I’m dealing with needing to surface replies generated by asynchronous events that aren’t necessarily triggered directly in response to a user prompt, and that may fall out of the immediate processing window of the user’s prompt.
My understanding of the old approach in Custom GPTs was that, since Actions are synchronous, this wasn’t possible without some sort of long polling mechanism; even with that, since there are timeout limits on processing of user prompts, there are some limitations here.
I wanted to see if maybe the new Apps SDK had a better answer here. When trying this out, I saw the following error in the console logs:
Method sendFollowUpMessage called without synchronous user event
I am interpreting this to mean that the same scenario is still effectively not supported in Apps SDK either. Is this something that can be supported in the future?
