ability to continue conversation or follow up

A link to ChatGPT can be used to continue the conversation

I'm not sure if this will continue the conversation or start a new one

[Plutone11011]

A standard link to the ChatGPT page would just start a new conversation. Maybe a way to approximate this would be to automate sending the same question through the input form, but even then ChatGPT doesn't always return the same answer.

What about a "Try again" button like the one in ChatGPT page?

This feature might warrant its own issue.

Given ChatGPT has released conversation saving/continuing now, this might be more viable?

Previous chats are accessible using their UUID with a link format of https://chat.openai.com/chat/:UUID. So as long as that UUID is something that the extension has available to it at that time, should be fairly trivial to create a link?

That said, this will likely conflict with the recently released 'delete search chat' feature:

Yes, that's what I'm trying to implement yesterday at first, but met some 429 problems so I decided to go the deletion way temporarily. Will try this again later!

This issue has been linked to a Canny post: Continue conversation on ChatGPT website :tada:

Dear Mr. @wong2 I found a way how to handle follow-up questions. I would correctly implement it by myself but sadly i have little experience in typescript, browser-messaging and Data-Stream-handling.

When becoming the first answer, ChatGPT sends a conversation_id, which you already use to delete conversations. For follow-up questions, just include a: conversation_id in the message-body:

        await fetchSSE('https://chat.openai.com/backend-api/conversation', {
          method: 'POST',
          signal: controller.signal,
          headers: {
            'Content-Type': 'application/json',
            Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
          },
          body: JSON.stringify({
            action: 'next',
            conversation_id: conversationId, //important change!
            messages: [
              {
                id: uuidv4(),
                role: "user",
                content: {
                  content_type: "text",
                  parts: ["can you elaborate on this?"] //TODO actual follow-up question
                }
              },
            ],
            model: 'text-davinci-002-render',
            parent_message_id: messageId,//take the uuidv4 from the previous generated
          }),
          onMessage(message: string) {
            console.debug('follow-up sse message:', message)
          },
        })

which results in something like this:

For better understanding, I uploaded you the changed background → index.tsx file. index.zip

hope I could help

I know a bit of Typescript and have been wanting to contribute to this excellent project. Let me take a look and see if I can help.

Were you able to find any solution to continue the conversation?

[lxfater]

In case anyone wants to solve this problem. I create an npm package to bring the AI power of the ChatGPT to another webpage and it has the ability to continue the conversation.
