Save chat history Buildship, FlutterFlow and Supabase
I've had a nightmare trying to save chat history. I've successfully implemented the new streaming feature with Flutterflow and Buildship and I've been able to add the variable for threadid. However, the headers output from buildship does not expose the response stream message, so that I can update a page state variable and correctly link it so it can be saved in supabase. I'm trying to save each entry (user and assistant) into supabase and without being able to update the page state variable with the response stream message, it's not working. Can someone please help me asap. As it stands, the response stream is only in the form of raw body text, and flutterflow keeps sharing an empty string or null when I use the raw body text output to supabase. The only time it's added, is if update the page state variable in the "action flow - on message" but when I do that, I'm not able to add other variables. Please help

To save chat history via the AI Assistant nodes to any database, you can follow the steps below:
1. Thread ID: Your OpenAI Assistant node already uses a
threadId for maintaining the chat history, which is also being returned from the Assistant node for reference. This can be used as the Document ID in the collection for storing the chat history externally.
2. Messages: The OpenAI Assistant also returns an output called messages which is an array of the entire chat history associated with the threadId. This is the data we need to store in our database (or process as required and then store depending upon your use case).
3. BuildShip Database Integration: Add a "Create Document" node from the BuildShip Database Integration. Give it a Collection Name. The Document ID needs to be the threadId as returned from the AI Assistant node. Pass in the messages output from the OpenAI Assistant node as the Data to be added/updated, as:
4. Merge Field: Make sure to set the Merge field for the Create Document node as false. This would entirely update the messages field every time, as the items get added to the chat history.

Hi @Gaurav Chadha , have followed all steps and the Assistant Streaming is working, my question is how can i handle the "Document Retrieval" tool, can we add a icon to upload an image or make a picture and then upload it?
Or should the image first stored in a database and then sent the URL with the "Document Retrieal" tool?
Would be nice if there is a short video or explanation for this
thank you in advance
To handle the "Document Retrieval" tool in BuildShip and add an icon to upload an image or take a picture, you can follow these general steps:
1. Image Upload: Add an icon or button to your interface that allows users to upload an image or take a picture.
2. Store Image: Store the uploaded image in a database or a storage service. You will need to generate a URL for the stored image.
3. Document Retrieval Tool: Use the generated URL to retrieve the document using the "Document Retrieval" tool.
For a more detailed explanation or video, please refer to the BuildShip documentation or submit a request via the in-app support button for specific guidance.
