The reverse engineering the chat feature of the new version of Bing
python3 -m pip install EdgeGPT --upgrade- python 3.8+
- A Microsoft Account with access to https://bing.com/chat (Optional, depending on your region)
- Required in a supported country or region with New Bing (Chinese mainland VPN required)
- Selenium (for automatic cookie setup)
!!! POSSIBLY NOT REQUIRED ANYMORE !!!
In some regions, Microsoft has made the chat feature available to everyone, so you might be able to skip this step. You can check this with a browser (with user-agent set to reflect Edge), by trying to start a chat without logging in.
It was also found that it might depend on your IP address. For example, if you try to access the chat features from an IP that is known to belong to a datacenter range (vServers, root servers, VPN, common proxies, ...), you might be required to log in while being able to access the features just fine from your home IP address.
If you receive the following error, you can try providing a cookie and see if it works then:
Exception: Authentication failed. You have not been accepted into the beta.
- Get a browser that looks like Microsoft Edge.
- a) (Easy) Install the latest version of Microsoft Edge
- b) (Advanced) Alternatively, you can use any browser and set the user-agent to look like you're using Edge (e.g.,
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/111.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 Edg/111.0.1661.51). You can do this easily with an extension like "User-Agent Switcher and Manager" for Chrome and Firefox.
- Open bing.com/chat
- If you see a chat feature, you are good to continue...
- Install the cookie editor extension for Chrome or Firefox
- Go to bing.com
- Open the extension
- Click "Export" on the bottom right, then "Export as JSON" (This saves your cookies to clipboard)
- Paste your cookies into a file
bing_cookies_*.json.- NOTE: The cookies file name MUST follow the regex pattern
bing_cookies_*.json, so that they could be recognized by internal cookie processing mechanisms
- NOTE: The cookies file name MUST follow the regex pattern
cookies = json.loads(open("./path/to/cookies.json", encoding="utf-8").read()) # might omit cookies option
bot = await Chatbot.create(cookies=cookies) $ python3 -m EdgeGPT.EdgeGPT -h

Use Async for the best experience, for example:
import asyncio, json
from EdgeGPT.EdgeGPT import Chatbot, ConversationStyle
async def main():
bot = await Chatbot.create() # Passing cookies is "optional", as explained above
response = await bot.ask(prompt="Hello world", conversation_style=ConversationStyle.creative, simplify_response=True)
print(json.dumps(response, indent=2)) # Returns
"""
{
"text": str
"author": str
"sources": list[dict]
"sources_text": str
"suggestions": list[str]
"messages_left": int
}
"""
await bot.close()
if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(main())First store your cookies in the default folder HOME/bing_cookies using the naming standard: bing_cookies_*.json, then it's super easy to create a Bing Chat query (in the 'precise' conversation style by default) and use the many helper method to get straight to the information you want, rather than writing more boiler-plate code to parse the API response:
from EdgeUtils import Query, ImageQuery, Cookie
q = Query("What are you? Give your answer as Python code")
print(q)To change the location or naming convention of cookie files manually, just update these Cookie attributes before creating your Query/ImageQuery:
Cookie.search_pattern = "account_*.json"
Cookie.dir_path = Path.home() / "my_private_cookies"To change the conversation style:
q = Query(
"What are you? Give your answer as Python code",
style="creative", # or 'balanced' or 'precise' (default)
)Quickly extract the text output, code snippets, list of sources/references, or suggested follow-on questions using the following attributes:
q.output
q.code_blocks
q.suggestions
q.sources # for the full json output
q.sources_dict # for a dictionary of titles and urlsGet the orginal prompt and the conversation style you specified:
q.prompt
q.style
repr(q)Access previous Queries made since importing Query:
Query.index # A list of Query objects; updated dynamically
Query.request_count # A tally of requests made using each cookie fileAnd finally, the Cookie class supports multiple cookie files, so if you create additional cookie files with the naming convention bing_cookies_*.json, your queries will automatically cycle through to the next file (alphabetically) and add them to Cookie.ignore_files once you've exceeded your daily quota of requests (currently 200).
Here are some of the attributes you can access:
Cookie.rotate_cookies
Cookie.supplied_files
Cookie.request_count
Cookie.current_file_index
Cookie.dir_path
Cookie.search_pattern # default is `bing_cookies_*.json`
Cookie.files() # list as files that match .search_pattern
Cookie.current_file_path
Cookie.current_data
Cookie.import_next()
Cookie.image_token
Cookie.ignore_filesFor a full list of methods and attributes, please have a look at
EdgeUtils.demo()
This assumes you have a file cookies.json in your current working directory
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/cookies.json:/cookies.json:ro -e COOKIE_FILE='/cookies.json' ghcr.io/acheong08/edgegptYou can add any extra flags as following
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd)/cookies.json:/cookies.json:ro -e COOKIE_FILE='/cookies.json' ghcr.io/acheong08/edgegpt --rich --style creative$ python3 -m ImageGen.ImageGen -h
