I have built an assistant on openai playground that takes input as a document and returns a response as text, I was thinking if that is possible to call that assistant by sending it the document using [make.com](http://make.com) if not is there a way I can pass a document or upload a document on [make.com](http://make.com) and then I can write a code in python that will make a call to that assistant and using this document and will return a text?

You can use the **Upload a file** module, and pass it to your custom OpenAI assistant.

Don’t forget to select “ **Knowledge Retrieval** ” in the OpenAI module.
