Put your API key into a text file named something like this: “api_key.txt”
Then type openai.api_key_path=“api_key.txt”

You can also use base64 encryption to encrypt the api key, but you don’t need to.

If you run openai using command ! openai, you should set api-key on environtment variable of your OS or you can set using this script:

import os
os.environ[‘OPENAI_API_KEY’] = ‘your key’

Create a new key and wait a little it will generate whole key and you will be able to copy it only once, if you loose u have to generate new one!

I have tried both using api_key=
os.environ[“OPENAI_API_KEY”] = api_key

and export OPENAI_API_KEY-
also.
Still i’m getting the same error.

Whether API Key should be used same or can be changed to new every time we run the trained model

import openai
openai.api_key = “…”

!export OPENAI_API_KEY=“…”

!openai api fine_tunes.create -t /content/drive/My\ Drive/trainingPromptsAndCompletions1.jsonl -m davinci

I have tried both ways, still getting same error:

Error: No API key provided. You can set your API key in code using ‘openai.api_key = ’, or you can set the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY=). If your API key is stored in a file, you can point the openai module at it with ‘openai.api_key_path = ’. You can generate API keys in the OpenAI web interface. See https://onboard.openai.com for details, or email support@openai.com if you have any questions.

Has anyone solved it yet?

I have never had a single problem using the environmental variable OPENAI_API_KEY, but I don’t use the OpenAI CLI and deleted it off my workstation within minutes after installing it.

HTH

I use PyCharm to write code on Windows 11, and I have the same problem.
The problem disappeared after restarting PyCharm.

No @ganga , i written this, it is working fine
os.environ[‘OPENAI_API_KEY’] = key

!openai api fine_tunes.create -t “sport2_prepared_train.jsonl” -v “sport2_prepared_valid.jsonl” --compute_classification_metrics --classification_positive_class “baseball” -m ada

All you need to do is:

  1. Generate an API key via this link: OpenAI API
  2. Create a paid account by punching in your credit card info. Important. :rofl:
  3. Then you can use the API as an environment variable, or directly in your program.
  4. Voila. It works.
    Give it a minute or two, after your enter your card info, for your account to be upgraded.

i think you don’t understand his question.
his prompt is not python script but native prompt linux

then :
$ openai -h
usage: openai [-h] [-v] [-b API_BASE] [-k API_KEY] [-o ORGANIZATION] {api,tools,wandb} …

positional arguments:
{api,tools,wandb}
api Direct API calls
tools Client side tools for convenience
wandb Logging with Weights & Biases

options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-v, --verbose Set verbosity.
-b API_BASE, --api-base API_BASE
What API base url to use.
-k API_KEY, --api-key API_KEY
What API key to use.
-o ORGANIZATION, --organization ORGANIZATION
Which organization to run as (will use your default organization if not specified)

ex: “openai -k my_api_key api fine_tunes.create -t /home/dataset_prepared.jsonl -m gpt-3.5-turbo”

You should use it directly in code (without os.getenv() )

you can solve this issue simply just by replacing your with code given below:

openai.api_key = “your-key”

Try this out in your command line:

openai -k <YOUR_API_KEY> api fine_tunes.create -t “your_path_to_gpt_prepared.jsonl” -m

Hello,
I’m Anna and I am new in this area. I have the same error as you @mp .
When I try to finetune a model I get thes message: >

openai api fine_tunes.follow -i ft-xxxxxx
←[91mError:←[0m No API key provided. You can set your API key in code using ‘openai.api_key = ’, or you can set the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY=). If your API key is stored in a file, you can point the openai module at it with ‘openai.api_key_path = ’. You can generate API keys in the OpenAI web interface. See the onbard page from openai for details, or email support@openai.com if you have any questions.

How did you solve the problem ?

Unfortunately I could not find it in your answers…

I would be very grateful for help

thanks, it works for me :grin: :+1: :+1: :+1:. Just change my_api_key with your api key

25

In my case I basically had to move the

import os
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = <OPENAI_API_KEY>

to the very top of the file ABOVE OTHER IMPORTS and it basically works.

That solved it for me - the import of openai itself had to come after the environment setting:

import os
os.environ['OPENAI_API_KEY'] = 'your key here'
import openai

blah blah blah...
