Hi.
I want to understand why enabling web search and prompting a simple “hello” will add ± 4350 tokens to the input, comparing with not enabled tool.
Obviously, the web search tool did not execute for that simple prompt.

Hey @Rodrigo_Martinez, yeah that’s kind of unusual.
We’d recommend reaching out to support@openai.com so the support team can take a closer look. They’ll be in the best spot to investigate what’s going on and help get it sorted.

Hey Rodrigo_Martinez,
We reviewed with our team and this is expected that search tool increases the input token even if search is not used. Thanks for flagging.
