I'm trying to access the response message from the assistant in a thread using Node.js and the OpenAI API. I create an assistant, start a thread with a user message, and then run it. However, I'm unsure how to specifically extract the assistant's reply from the list of thread messages.
Here is my code:
JAVASCRIPTconst openai = new OpenAI({ apiKey: '****', // defaults to process.env["OPENAI_API_KEY"] }); // Add the file to the assistant const assistant = await openai.beta.assistants.create({ instructions: "You are a teacher. Use your knowledge base to best respond to student queries.", model: "gpt-4-1106-preview", tools: [{ type: "retrieval" }], // file_ids: ["file-8GPAe7Xx8lDGePc6ETMu9kN4"] }); const thread = await openai.beta.threads.create({ messages: [ { "role": "user", "content": "Let me know the content of the file.", // "file_ids": ["file-8GPAe7Xx8lDGePc6ETMu9kN4"] } ] }); const run = await openai.beta.threads.runs.create( thread.id, { assistant_id: assistant.id, instructions: "Please address the user as Jane Doe. The user has a premium account." } ); const run_response = await openai.beta.threads.runs.retrieve( thread.id, run.id ); const messages: any = await openai.beta.threads.messages.list( thread.id ); // console.log(messages.data[0].content); const threadMessages = await openai.beta.threads.messages.list( thread.id ); console.log(threadMessages.data);
I have already tried retrieving all thread messages, but I'm not sure how to filter out the assistant's reply effectively. Any suggestions or guidance on how to properly access the assistant's response message would be appreciated.

You can access the assistant's reply by retrieving the full list of thread messages and then filtering for the message whose role is "assistant". For example:
JAVASCRIPT// Retrieve all messages for the thread const threadMessages = await openai.beta.threads.messages.list(thread.id); // Find the assistant's response const assistantResponse = threadMessages.data.find(msg => msg.role === "assistant"); if (assistantResponse) { console.log("Assistant's response:", assistantResponse.content); } else { console.log("No assistant response found."); }
In this snippet, after fetching the messages, we search the data array for the message with role "assistant." This gives you the actual response content from the assistant.
