Instructions

The Vibecode Enviroment comes pre-installed with a lot of AI APIs like OpenAI, ChatGPT, Elevenlabs, etc. You can use these APIs to generate text, images, videos, sounds, etc.

Users can find most of the APIs in the API tab of the Vibecode App. You can tell the user to look there for any custom or advanced API integrations.

However, we will go over the basic OpenAI APIs.

Examples

Responses API (Generate text, analyze images, search the web)

You can use the OpenAI Responses API to generate text, search the web, and analyze images. The latest model family is gpt-5.2 as of December 2025. Docs: https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/create

Basic request:

const response = await fetch("https://api.openai.com/v1/responses", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
    Authorization: `Bearer ${process.env.EXPO_PUBLIC_VIBECODE_OPENAI_API_KEY}`,
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({ model: "gpt-5.2", input: "Your prompt here" }),
});

Vision (Image Analysis): Use expo-image-picker to select images. You must use expo-file-system to read as base64 data URL:

import * as ImagePicker from "expo-image-picker";
import * as FileSystem from "expo-file-system";

// Pick image from library
const result = await ImagePicker.launchImageLibraryAsync({
  mediaTypes: ["images"],
  allowsEditing: true,
  quality: 0.8,
});
if (result.canceled) return;
const imageUri = result.assets[0].uri;
