Open AI Response API

The idea is:

I need to be able to use the response with the depreciation of the Assistants api

My use case:

I use the structured output from the assistants more then anything and the vector dbs

I think it would be beneficial to add this because:

Assistants are being deprecated

Any resources to support this?

https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/responses/create

Are you willing to work on this?

Absolutely, let me know how I can help build out this node to stay up to date with these nodes

I’m also urgently looking for this. GPT-5 is not accessible via the Open AI Assistant node as Open AI will no longer update the Assistants API.

This means I need to move to the Responses API, but I’d hate to build it out myself everywhere only to have to rewire it once the official node comes out.

Would be great if there was an indication of an ETA.

Hey @BryanCrowder, can you clarify what you mean by “I use the structured output from the assistants more then anything and the vector dbs”? Maybe send over an example workflow json for us to look at?

@pdwarf But you still didn’t answer the key point. We really need an official Node module that supports the Responses API and Threads, so the heavy lifting of memory tracking runs on OpenAI’s side — not the very limited memory system N8N provides.

I think we are missing Conversation Node! where we can set the conversation ID! as Thread ID!

@Bashar_Al_Masri, welcome to the forum! The OpenAI node now uses the Responses API – this got introduced in 1.117.0. If you update to the latest version of n8n, you will be able to use it, including conversation id parameter as part of the options.

@pdwarf Thank you so much, I updated N8N., One more question, how can N8N stream the response?
