API Keys vanished overnight

API
1

Hello,

Just a quick question from a novice user. I’m working a platform for a bunch of teachers in our school district. I was hoping to track usage from each school, so I created a different API key for each one. In my code, I simply run a switch statement to use the appropriate key depending on which teacher logs in.

However when I logged back into OpenAI today to check a few things, I noticed all the new school keys are gone on the API keys page. All that’s left are the first two I made during initial development.

Is there a limit on these I don’t know about? It didn’t stop me from making them initially.

Thanks for any and all help!

Michael

Can you try a hard refresh of the page? I think they had problems yesterday… there’s a couple threads, and an OpenAI employee dropped in. If it’s not fixed, they’ll want to know.

Also, keys are revoked if they’re leaked, but I don’t think they’re deleted… Another thing might be that you set them up during problems yesterday?

Welcome to the community!

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the quick reply - I tried the hard refresh (tried again just now for good measure) :slight_smile: but no change.

I can remake them and see if it happens again. But as far as you know, there’s no rule about maximum number of API keys per account or whatnot?

Thanks,

Michael

Yeah, here’s the thread(s)…

Maybe you just timed it weirdly?

Try again and let us know. Make sure not to leak them too.

Good luck.
