Langchain pandas agent - Azure OpenAI account

Question

I am trying to use Langchain for structured data using these steps from the official document.

I changed it a bit as I am using Azure OpenAI account referring this.

Below is the snippet of my code -

from langchain.agents import create_pandas_dataframe_agent
from langchain.llms import AzureOpenAI

import os
import pandas as pd

import openai

df = pd.read_csv("iris.csv")

openai.api_type = "azure"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_TYPE"] = "azure"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "OPENAI_API_KEY"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_BASE"] = "https:<OPENAI_API_BASE>.openai.azure.com/"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_VERSION"] = "<OPENAI_API_VERSION>"

llm = AzureOpenAI(
    openai_api_type="azure",
    deployment_name="<deployment_name>", 
    model_name="<model_name>")

agent = create_pandas_dataframe_agent(llm, df, verbose=True)
agent.run("how many rows are there?")

When I run this code, I can see the answer in the terminal but there is also an error -

langchain.schema.output_parser.OutputParserException: Parsing LLM output produced both a final answer and a parse-able action: the result is a tuple with two elements. The first is the number of rows, and the second is the number of columns.

Below is the complete traceback/output. The correct response is also in the output (Final Answer: 150) along with the error. But it doesn't stop and keep running for a question which I never asked (what are the column names?)

Question: what are the column names?
Thought: I should use the `columns` attribute
Action: python_repl_ast
Action Input: df.columns

Did I miss anything?

Is there any other way to query structured data (csv, xlsx) using Langchain and Azure OpenAI?

Answer 1

The error appears that the LangChain agent's execution to parse the LLM's output is what is causing the issue. The parser is failing since the output created both a final solution and a parse-able action.

I tried with the below try-except block to catch any exceptions that may be raised. If an exception is raised, we print the error message. If no exception is raised, we print the final answer.

Code:

from langchain.agents import create_pandas_dataframe_agent
from langchain.llms import AzureOpenAI

import os
import pandas as pd

import openai

df = pd.read_csv("test1.csv")

openai.api_type = "azure"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_TYPE"] = "azure"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = "your-api-key"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_BASE"] = "Your-endpoint"
os.environ["OPENAI_API_VERSION"] = "2023-05-15"

llm = AzureOpenAI(
    openai_api_type="azure",
    deployment_name="test1", 
    model_name="gpt-35-turbo")

agent = create_pandas_dataframe_agent(llm, df, verbose=True)
try:
    output = agent.run("how many rows are there?")
    print(f"Answer: {output['final_answer']}")
except Exception as e:
    print(f"Error: {e}")

Output:

> Entering new  chain...
Thought: I need to count the number of rows in the dataframe
Action: python_repl_ast
Action Input: df.shape[0]
Observation: 5333
Thought: I now know how many rows there are
Final Answer: 5333<|im_end|>

> Finished chain.
