"""Chain that makes API calls and summarizes the responses to answer a question.
*Security Note*: This API chain uses the requests toolkit
to make GET, POST, PATCH, PUT, and DELETE requests to an API.
Exercise care in who is allowed to use this chain. If exposing
to end users, consider that users will be able to make arbitrary
requests on behalf of the server hosting the code. For example,
users could ask the server to make a request to a private API
that is only accessible from the server.
Control access to who can submit issue requests using this toolkit and
what network access it has.
See https://python.langchain.com/docs/security for more information.
Note: this class is deprecated. See below for a replacement implementation
using LangGraph. The benefits of this implementation are:
- Uses LLM tool calling features to encourage properly-formatted API requests;
- Support for both token-by-token and step-by-step streaming;
- Support for checkpointing and memory of chat history;
- Easier to modify or extend (e.g., with additional tools, structured responses, etc.)
Install LangGraph with:
.. code-block:: bash
pip install -U langgraph
.. code-block:: python
