A practical guide to prompt engineering for structured data extraction
This tutorial details a method for extracting structured data from unstructured text, specifically focusing on cybersecurity advisories. It outlines a process using the OpenAI API, Pydantic for schema definition and validation, and the `tenacity` library for retry logic. The guide covers system prompt design, few-shot examples, and handling ambiguous fields to reliably parse information like CVE IDs, affected products, and remediation steps into a JSON format. AI
