Greetings, magical technologists! ✨ At Team PowerPotters, we’ve combined the power of Bing Search API, OpenAI GPT-4, and Power Automate to create a truly innovative web-crawling solution. Our workflow dynamically discovers, analyzes, and integrates external APIs, transforming how potion-related data is sourced and utilized. Here’s how we earned the Crawler Badge by blending search, AI, and automation into one seamless process.
The Crawler Workflow: Step-by-Step Magic
- Discovering APIs with Bing Search API
- Purpose: To dynamically find public APIs related to Harry Potter spells or magical data.
- Execution:
- Query:
"public API Harry Potter spells"
. - Filters: Results are restricted to recent entries with keywords like
/api
or “documentation”.
- Query:
- Analyzing APIs with OpenAI GPT-4
- Purpose: To validate URLs as APIs and extract relevant schemas, field mappings, and example data.
- Execution: For each URL, OpenAI determines if the URL links to an API or its documentation. If valid, it provides:
- API schema.
- Example JSON response.
- Field mappings for key data (e.g.,
Name
for spell name,Description
for spell effects).
- Integrating with Power Automate
- Purpose: To process, validate, and integrate the data into our system.
- Workflow Steps:
- Parse Bing Results: Extract relevant URLs using JSON parsing.
- Validate URLs: OpenAI determines if the URL links to a valid API and provides field mappings.
- Dynamic Integration: Call validated APIs and use extracted data to:
- Create new product entries in D365FO.
- Enrich existing products with spell names (
Name
) and effects (Description
).
- Automation: Run schema validations dynamically, ensuring data consistency.
A Scenario in Action
A potion master requests information on new magical spells for potion research. Using this workflow:
- Search: Bing Search API identifies APIs like Potterhead API.
- Validation: OpenAI ensures the API provides valid spell data, extracting fields like
Name
(e.g., Accio) andDescription
(e.g., Summons an object). - Integration: Power Automate dynamically updates the potion master’s research database with enriched spell information, saving hours of manual effort.
Why This Deserves the Crawler Badge
- Innovative Use of Search:
- Bing Search API dynamically finds and filters public APIs, extending its use beyond static results.
- AI-Powered Validation:
- OpenAI GPT-4 dynamically analyzes URLs, validates APIs, and generates schemas and field mappings for seamless integration.
- Solving Real Business Problems:
- Potion masters gain enriched, real-time product data without manual intervention, enabling informed decisions.
- Scalability:
- The workflow is adaptable for future needs, such as integrating potions, artifacts, or even non-magical domains.
Crawling the Web for Magical Insights
This dynamic web-crawling solution exemplifies how search, AI, and automation can revolutionize the way data is discovered and integrated. With this innovation, we humbly submit our case for the Crawler Badge, showcasing how Team PowerPotters continues to push boundaries: acdc.blog/category/cepheo25.
