I have no experience with python. Unfortunately I fail to test Fine-tuning. I managed to install openai pip install --upgrade openai and Set OPENAI\_API\_KEY="\" (windows) however I can’t start the data verification tool. I get the message that the command doesn’t exist. Here I read that it is necessary to set the path where the command is located. openai tools fine\_tunes.prepare\_data -f \ Can anyone write a detailed Fine-tuning guide for windows not python developers. (or just make one example for c #) 🙂 thankful in advance IC ---

you can use a tool like Postman to do API calls and upload your files. You can also use services like [https://mantiumai.com/](https://mantiumai.com/) to do that and manage your files ---

Thanks for the quick answer. Uploading a file is not a problem. I can do this directly with REST Api. However, if I understood correctly, I must first check the json with this tool. I can of course upload the data via api without checking and then hope it works. ---

oh sorry, I misunderstood your problem. I did upload without the verification, if it is wrong it will let you know and you can upload again. ---

Hope this helps you: > [@Unable to run the command Line interface (CLI) for openai](https://community.openai.com/t/unable-to-run-the-command-line-interface-cli-for-openai/6197/18): > > @carla @m-a.schenk Thanks guys for engaging me. I finally figured it out. Putting this out there so that someone else can benefit. Problem: “openai” is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. Solution. step 1. run “where openai” from the anaconda prompt. You will get a path to the scripts folder. [image] Step 2. Navigate to the folder using “cd . Make sure you remove the openai from the end.” [image] Step 3: Run “python openai …arguments” from t…
