Edit Functions bug in Assistant edit popup

Prompting

In the OpenAI Assistant editor, I have 2 functions, if I try and update either I get this error,

The only way to say is to give my function a different name, then go back and change it back to what it should be.

I guess when saving after making changes its seeing it as a NEW function, even though im editting an existing function.

Probably you set it twice.
Another option → save them in a notepad, delete the functions, add them again and see if you get same error. If you get same error, edit the post and add a Bugs tag.

No, I didn’t set the same function name twice.

Yes, of course if I save them in notepad, and delete then add then its going to work just fine.

I’m saying that when I EDIT a function, it forces me to rename it in order to be able to save changes, then I have to go and EDIT it again to change its name back to what it was before.

I used this function (just build it with GPT), i didn’t had a problem with the name (I was thinking some words are restricted, but is working):


{
  "name": "get_medicalterm_unsure",
  "description": "Identifies a medical term or phrase based on available details. This function aims to accurately determine medical terminology, allowing access to specific information and services related to healthcare.",
  "parameters": {
    "type": "object",
    "properties": {
      "term_or_phrase": {
        "type": "string",
        "description": "The medical term or phrase to identify.",
        "optional": false
      },
      "context": {
        "type": "string",
        "description": "Additional context or details that may help in identification.",
        "optional": true
      },
      "source": {
        "type": "string",
        "description": "The source or origin of the term/phrase, if known.",
        "optional": true
      },
      "language": {
        "type": "string",
        "description": "The language in which the term/phrase is expressed (e.g., English, Latin, etc.).",
        "optional": true
      },
      "specialty": {
        "type": "string",
        "description": "The medical specialty or field to which the term/phrase relates (e.g., cardiology, dermatology, etc.).",
        "optional": true
      }
    },
    "required": ["term_or_phrase"]
  }
}

Try adding another function of a similar name. So your assistant has 2 functions.

Then go and Edit the first one, change a param or something and try and save

Yes that’s annoying… every time I want to update the description I need to change the function name and then change it back.
