How to connect OpenAI Responses and MySQL
Create a New Scenario to Connect OpenAI Responses and MySQL
In the workspace, click the โCreate New Scenarioโ button.

Add the First Step
Add the first node โ a trigger that will initiate the scenario when it receives the required event. Triggers can be scheduled, called by a OpenAI Responses, triggered by another scenario, or executed manually (for testing purposes). In most cases, OpenAI Responses or MySQL will be your first step. To do this, click "Choose an app," find OpenAI Responses or MySQL, and select the appropriate trigger to start the scenario.

Add the OpenAI Responses Node
Select the OpenAI Responses node from the app selection panel on the right.

OpenAI Responses
Configure the OpenAI Responses
Click on the OpenAI Responses node to configure it. You can modify the OpenAI Responses URL and choose between DEV and PROD versions. You can also copy it for use in further automations.
Add the MySQL Node
Next, click the plus (+) icon on the OpenAI Responses node, select MySQL from the list of available apps, and choose the action you need from the list of nodes within MySQL.

Configure the OpenAI Responses and MySQL Nodes
Next, configure the nodes by filling in the required parameters according to your logic. Fields marked with a red asterisk (*) are mandatory.
Set Up the OpenAI Responses and MySQL Integration
Use various Latenode nodes to transform data and enhance your integration:
- Branching: Create multiple branches within the scenario to handle complex logic.
- Merging: Combine different node branches into one, passing data through it.
- Plug n Play Nodes: Use nodes that donโt require account credentials.
- Ask AI: Use the GPT-powered option to add AI capabilities to any node.
- Wait: Set waiting times, either for intervals or until specific dates.
- Sub-scenarios (Nodules): Create sub-scenarios that are encapsulated in a single node.
- Iteration: Process arrays of data when needed.
- Code: Write custom code or ask our AI assistant to do it for you.

Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring OpenAI Responses, MySQL, and any additional nodes, donโt forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking โRun onceโ and triggering an event to check if the OpenAI Responses and MySQL integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between OpenAI Responses and MySQL (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect OpenAI Responses and MySQL
OpenAI Responses + MySQL + Slack: When a new response is received from OpenAI, it's stored in a MySQL database. If specific keywords are detected in the response during the database insertion, a notification is sent to a designated Slack channel.
MySQL + OpenAI Responses + Google Sheets: When a new row is added to a MySQL database table, OpenAI analyzes the row's data. Key insights from this analysis are then saved to a specified Google Sheet.
