FAQPage Schema
How do I build a streaming chat backend with FastAPI?▼

You can build a streaming chat backend by subclassing ChatKitServer and exposing a FastAPI endpoint that streams responses. It uses AsyncIterator and StreamingResponse to handle real-time chat sessions and thread management asynchronously.

Does ChatKit work with the OpenAI Agents SDK for real-time conversations?▼

Yes, ChatKit works with the OpenAI Agents SDK to enable real-time conversations. The backend integrates with the SDK to stream assistant messages and progress events asynchronously to a ChatKit-integrated React frontend.

What is the best way to manage chat threads in an asynchronous streaming server?▼

The best way to manage chat threads in an asynchronous streaming server is using a Postgres-backed thread store. This approach provides modular integration and persistent thread management for streaming AI responses.

How do I stream AI responses to a React frontend using FastAPI?▼

You stream AI responses to a React frontend using FastAPI by implementing SSE-like streaming of assistant messages. The server uses AsyncIterator and StreamingResponse to push real-time progress events and messages to ChatKit-integrated frontends.

Can I add custom endpoints to a ChatKit streaming server?▼

Yes, you can add custom endpoints to a ChatKit streaming server. The backend provides expandable FastAPI endpoints for extensible task handling, allowing you to integrate additional logic alongside the OpenAI Agents SDK.
