Exercise care in who is allowed to use this chain. If exposing to end users, consider that users will be able to make arbitrary requests on behalf of the server hosting the code. For example, users could ask the server to make a request to a private API that is only accessible from the server. Control access to who can submit issue requests using this toolkit and what network access it has. See https://docs.langchain.com/oss/python/security-policy for more information. !!! note This class is deprecated. See below for a replacement implementation using LangGraph. The benefits of this implementation are: - Uses LLM tool calling features to encourage properly-formatted API requests; - Support for both token-by-token and step-by-step streaming; - Support for checkpointing and memory of chat history; - Easier to modify or extend (e.g., with additional tools, structured responses, etc.) Install LangGraph with: ```bash pip install -U langgraph ``` ```python from typing import Annotated, Sequence from typing_extensions import TypedDict from langchain_classic.chains.api.prompt import API_URL_PROMPT from langchain_community.agent_toolkits.openapi.toolkit import RequestsToolkit from langchain_community.utilities.requests import TextRequestsWrapper from langchain_core.messages import BaseMessage from langchain_core.prompts import ChatPromptTemplate from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI from langchain_core.runnables import RunnableConfig from langgraph.graph import END, StateGraph from langgraph.graph.message import add_messages from langgraph.prebuilt.tool_node import ToolNode # NOTE: There are inherent risks in giving models discretion # to execute real-world actions.
