De Responses API breidt Chat Completions uit met stateful conversaties, ingebouwde tools, multimodale bestandsinput en controle over reasoning. Het is het aanbevolen endpoint voor OpenAI o-series reasoning-modellen, GPT-5-serie en Codex-modellen.

Verschillende modelproviders ondersteunen verschillende requestparameters en geven uiteenlopende responsevelden terug. Niet alle parameters die hierboven in de playground worden vermeld, werken met elk model op CometAPI.

Gebruik stateful conversaties

Koppel responses aan elkaar met previous_response_id in plaats van zelf de message history te beheren:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="https://api.cometapi.com/v1",
    api_key="<COMETAPI_KEY>",
)

# First turn
response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="What is quantum computing?",
)

# Second turn — previous context is included automatically
follow_up = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="Can you explain that more simply?",
    previous_response_id=response.id,
)

print(follow_up.output_text)

Gebruik ingebouwde tools

De Responses API bevat door het platform aangeboden tools die geen configuratie vereisen:

Tool	Doel
`web_search_preview`	Zoek op het web naar realtime informatie
`file_search`	Zoek in geüploade bestanden
`code_interpreter`	Voer Python-code uit in een sandbox

Om een ingebouwde tool in te schakelen, voeg je die toe aan de tools-array:

response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="Find the current price of Bitcoin",
    tools=[{"type": "web_search_preview"}],
)

print(response.output_text)

Roep aangepaste functies aan

Definieer functies die het model kan aanroepen met gestructureerde argumenten:

response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="What's the weather in Tokyo?",
    tools=[{
        "type": "function",
        "name": "get_weather",
        "description": "Get current weather for a location",
        "parameters": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "location": {"type": "string"}
            },
            "required": ["location"]
        }
    }],
)

Wanneer het model een functie aanroept, bevat de output-array in de response een function_call-item met de functienaam en geparste argumenten. Voer de functie uit en stuur het resultaat terug in een vervolgaanvraag.

Vraag gestructureerde output aan

Om JSON-output af te dwingen die overeenkomt met een specifiek schema, gebruik je de parameter text.format:

response = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="List 3 programming languages with their main use cases",
    text={
        "format": {
            "type": "json_schema",
            "name": "languages",
            "strict": True,
            "schema": {
                "type": "object",
                "properties": {
                    "languages": {
                        "type": "array",
                        "items": {
                            "type": "object",
                            "properties": {
                                "name": {"type": "string"},
                                "use_case": {"type": "string"}
                            },
                            "required": ["name", "use_case"],
                            "additionalProperties": False
                        }
                    }
                },
                "required": ["languages"],
                "additionalProperties": False
            }
        }
    },
)

Configureer reasoning

Voor o-series- en GPT-5-modellen kun je de diepte van reasoning beheren met reasoning.effort:

response = client.responses.create(
    model="o3",
    input="Solve this step by step: if f(x) = x^3 - 6x^2 + 11x - 6, find all roots.",
    reasoning={"effort": "high"},  # "low", "medium", or "high"
)

print(response.output_text)

Een hogere reasoning effort levert grondigere antwoorden op, maar gebruikt meer tokens. Gebruik "low" voor eenvoudige queries en "high" voor complexe meerstapsproblemen.

Stream Responses

Om incrementele output te ontvangen, stel je stream in op true. De API verstuurt server-sent events (SSE) in deze volgorde:

response.created — Response-object geïnitialiseerd
response.in_progress — Generatie gestart
response.output_item.added — Nieuw output-item (bericht of tool call)
response.content_part.added — Content-part gestart
response.output_text.delta — Tekstchunk (bevat het veld delta)
response.output_text.done — Tekstgeneratie voltooid voor deze content-part
response.content_part.done — Content-part voltooid
response.output_item.done — Output-item voltooid
response.completed — Volledige response met usage-gegevens

Stream een response met de Python SDK:

stream = client.responses.create(
    model="gpt-5.4",
    input="Write a haiku about coding",
    stream=True,
)

for event in stream:
    if event.type == "response.output_text.delta":
        print(event.delta, end="")

Autorisaties

Authorization

string

header

vereist

Bearer token authentication. Use your CometAPI key.

Body

application/json

model

string

vereist

Model ID to use for this request. See the Models page for current options.

Voorbeeld:

"gpt-5.4"

input

vereist

Text, image, or file inputs to the model, used to generate a response. Can be a simple string for text-only input, or an array of input items for multimodal content (images, files) and multi-turn conversations.

instructions

string

A system (or developer) message inserted into the model's context. When used with previous_response_id, instructions from the previous response are not carried over — this makes it easy to swap system messages between turns.

background

boolean

standaard:false

Whether to run the model response in the background. Background responses do not return output directly — you retrieve the result later via the response ID.

context_management

object[]

Context management configuration for this request. Controls how the model manages context when the conversation exceeds the context window.

Show child attributes

conversation

The conversation this response belongs to. Items from the conversation are prepended to input for context. Input and output items are automatically added to the conversation after the response completes. Cannot be used with previous_response_id.

include

enum<string>[]

Additional output data to include in the response. Use this to request extra information that is not included by default.

Beschikbare opties:

web_search_call.action.sources,

code_interpreter_call.outputs,

computer_call_output.output.image_url,

file_search_call.results,

message.input_image.image_url,

message.output_text.logprobs,

reasoning.encrypted_content

max_output_tokens

integer

An upper bound for the number of tokens that can be generated for a response, including visible output tokens and reasoning tokens.

max_tool_calls

integer

The maximum number of total calls to built-in tools that can be processed in a response. This limit applies across all built-in tool calls, not per individual tool. Any further tool call attempts by the model will be ignored.

metadata

object

Set of up to 16 key-value pairs that can be attached to the response. Useful for storing additional information in a structured format. Keys have a maximum length of 64 characters; values have a maximum length of 512 characters.

Show child attributes

parallel_tool_calls

boolean

standaard:true

Whether to allow the model to run tool calls in parallel.

previous_response_id

string

The unique ID of a previous response. Use this to create multi-turn conversations without manually managing conversation state. Cannot be used with conversation.

prompt

object

Reference to a prompt template and its variables.

Show child attributes

prompt_cache_key

string

A key used to cache responses for similar requests, helping optimize cache hit rates. Replaces the deprecated user field for caching purposes.

prompt_cache_retention

enum<string>

The retention policy for the prompt cache. Set to 24h to keep cached prefixes active for up to 24 hours.

Beschikbare opties:

in-memory,

24h

reasoning

object

Configuration options for reasoning models (o-series and gpt-5). Controls the depth of reasoning before generating a response.

Show child attributes

safety_identifier

string

A stable identifier for your end-users, used to help detect policy violations. Should be a hashed username or email — do not send identifying information directly.

Maximum string length: 64

service_tier

enum<string>

Specifies the processing tier for the request. When set, the response will include the actual service_tier used.

auto: Uses the tier configured in project settings (default behavior).
default: Standard pricing and performance.
flex: Flexible processing with potential cost savings.
priority: Priority processing with faster response times.

Beschikbare opties:

auto,

default,

flex,

priority

store

boolean

standaard:true

Whether to store the generated response for later retrieval via API.

stream

boolean

standaard:false

If set to true, the response data will be streamed to the client as it is generated using server-sent events (SSE). Events include response.created, response.output_text.delta, response.completed, and more.

stream_options

object

Options for streaming responses. Only set this when stream is true.

Show child attributes

temperature

number

standaard:1

Sampling temperature between 0 and 2. Higher values (e.g., 0.8) increase randomness; lower values (e.g., 0.2) make output more focused and deterministic. We recommend adjusting either this or top_p, but not both.

Vereist bereik: 0 <= x <= 2

text

object

Configuration for text output. Use this to request structured JSON output via JSON mode or JSON Schema.

Show child attributes

tool_choice

standaard:auto

Controls how the model selects which tool(s) to call.

auto (default): The model decides whether and which tools to call.
none: The model will not call any tools.
required: The model must call at least one tool.
An object specifying a particular tool to use.

tools

object[]

An array of tools the model may call while generating a response. CometAPI supports three categories:

Built-in tools: Platform-provided tools like web_search_preview and file_search.
Function calls: Custom functions you define, enabling the model to call your own code with structured arguments.
MCP tools: Integrations with third-party systems via MCP servers.

top_logprobs

integer

Number of most likely tokens to return at each position (0–20), each with an associated log probability. Must include message.output_text.logprobs in the include parameter to receive logprobs.

Vereist bereik: 0 <= x <= 20

top_p

number

standaard:1

Nucleus sampling parameter. The model considers tokens with top_p cumulative probability mass. For example, 0.1 means only the top 10% probability tokens are considered. We recommend adjusting either this or temperature, but not both.

Vereist bereik: 0 <= x <= 1

truncation

enum<string>

standaard:disabled

The truncation strategy for handling inputs that exceed the model's context window.

auto: The model truncates the input by dropping items from the beginning of the conversation to fit.
disabled (default): The request fails with a 400 error if the input exceeds the context window.

Beschikbare opties:

auto,

disabled

user

string

verouderd

Deprecated. Use safety_identifier and prompt_cache_key instead. A stable identifier for your end-user.
