Building Chat Plugins for Microsoft Bing and Edge
summary
Bing and Edge add a plugin system compatible with ChatGPT so one plugin investment reaches Bing Chat, Microsoft 365 Copilot, and ChatGPT; the service reports 500 million chats and 100 million daily users. Plugins require an OpenAPI specification and a manifest file; examples show OpenTable invoked automatically to check availability and produce a one-click booking link, and Instacart used to generate and submit a shopping list via Instacart integration. Submission goes through a review and an Edge sidebar catalog for discovery.
