hello, guys. this project is really fantastic, i have been using it for a while time. but，yesterday，when i asked bingAI，it returned a error. Have you ever see this error?

An error occurred. Please try again in a few moments. Error message: /turing/conversation/create: failed to parse response body. ...

Hi, yes it seems Bing has updated something on their end but I have a solution for you. Update the project to latest on main branch, I also posted this here: https://github.com/waylaidwanderer/node-chatgpt-api/issues/378#issuecomment-1559868368 and updated the project accordingly here #369

You will need to set BINGAI_TOKEN in your ./api/.env file (or in your browser if using "user_provided") to your full cookies string from bing.com, instead of just the U= value.

This is confirmed working for me

Using firefox and dev tools, i get my cookies string from here:

---

You can use any browser, just fish around in the network tab to see which request has a Cookie value in the Request headers

Thanks for checking out the project, I'm glad you're enjoying it!

@feng2505664393 let me know if the above worked for you

There were also some other suggestions at the bottom of this issues page https://github.com/waylaidwanderer/node-chatgpt-api/issues/378

Sorry, sir. I used an old version of chat-clone. In order to try the solution you provided, I had to update my Docker image. It took me some time, but the exciting thing is that I just finished all the work on the solution and it works! Hahaha, thank you.

Awesome, glad to help!

if like me you do not like manual steps to derive BING_API_TOKEN configuration, this can be automated

if __name__ == "__main__":
    token = get_bing_api_token("username", "password")
    print(token)

python selenium function to get BING_API_TOKEN

    # Create a new WebDriver instance with Docker
