This document will outline how to set up a:
• resource group - the container in which your Azure services will reside
• storage account - contains all of your data objects
• search service - which will search and index your files to feed in back to the OpenAI connection in the The Bot Platform
You will need to set up the above before being able to add your data source in Azure and OpenAI message part into the TBP CMS.
Create a resource
1) Go to https://portal.azure.com, and under Azure services, click on "Create a resource":
2) Search for "OpenAI" and pick Azure OpenAI by Microsoft:

4) Select "All Networks"—this is required so that our bots can use it:
Add any tags (optional), hit "Next", then "Create", and wait for deployment to complete.
5) At this point, click on "Go to resource", then go to "Azure OpenAI studio" and click "Create new deployment":
Select model: "gpt-35-turbo", version: "auto-update" and give it a name
Hit "Create"
6) Go back to Azure Portal, Resource Groups and select the Resource Group created/selected in step 4: https://portal.azure.com/#view/HubsExtension/BrowseResourceGroups
