Hi team, while reading the MCP OpenAI documentation (link), I noticed that it uses tools with type ‘mcp’. However, when I checked the Python SDK, I only saw tools defined using the ‘function’ type. Could someone please clarify or explain the difference? Because when I use type 'mcp" I got the error “openai.BadRequestError: Error code: 400 - {‘error’: {‘message’: “Missing required parameter: ‘tools[0].function’.”, ‘type’: ‘invalid_request_error’, ‘param’: ‘tools[0].function’, ‘code’: ‘missing_required_parameter’}}” and this is my current set up in my code:
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
model=model_info.model,
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": user_prompt},
],
temperature=model_info.temperature,
tools=[
{
"type": "mcp",
"server_label": "GoogleSheets",
"server_url": MCP_SERVER_URL,
"headers": {
"Authorization": f"Bearer {settings.pipedream_access_token}",
"x-pd-project-id": settings.pipedream_project_id,
"x-pd-environment": settings.pipedream_environment,
"x-pd-external-user-id": "cv-bot",
"x-pd-app-slug": app_slug,
},
"require_approval": "never",
}
],
)
Thank you so much
