Unable to verify organization

Hi.

I’m solo developer and use my personal OpenAI API account if for my personal needs use of o1/o3-mini (created a account back when GPT-4 announced),

but now it asks verify my organization which does not exist and i’d used my own full name but still can’t verify, just shows unable to verify organization.

My account organization (i don’t have actual organization but created on Dashboard as required) somehow declined as per request response in DevTool

GET https://api.openai.com/v1/inquiries

{
    "object": "list",
    "data": [
        {
            "object": "inquiry",
            "id": "inq_xxx",
            "inquiry_type": "TRUSTED_ORGANIZATION",
            "inquiry_status": "DECLINED",
            "created_at": TIMESTAMP,
            "updated_at": TIMESTAMP
        }
    ],
    "first_id": "inq_xxx",
    "last_id": "inq_xxx,
    "has_more": false
}

Can you please help me?

I need either get verified or refund money

You did verify your organization via platform.openai.com and the general organization settings and now want to know if you have access to the new models? Is that correct?

You can check the limits page if the new models are listed for the organization that you have verified.

https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits

There is no documented inquiries endpoint. I also am not sure which DevTool you may be referring to.

To get above JSON content you can do these steps.

Preparation:

  • Make sure you have installed curl and jq installed on your system
  • Active internet connection
  • Account with unable to verify or declined (somehow) organization status
  1. Open browser and open https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/general
  2. Login to OpenAI with account which has a declined or unable to verify status.
  3. Open browser DevTool like Chrome DevTool (F12 on Windows, Option+Command+I on macOS)
  4. Open Network tab
  5. Filter by /login path and see response POST response
  6. Access response json path user.session.sensitive_id and it contains Session Authorization
  7. Copy Organization ID from Dashboard (step 1) and Session Authorization (from step 6)
  8. Try command below
curl --location 'https://api.openai.com/v1/inquiries' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer $SESSION_AUTH' \
--header 'OpenAI-Organization: $ORGANIZATION_ID' | jq

FAQ:

Where did i get link to https://api.openai.com/v1/inquiries

  • I got it from browser DevTools from new account with unverified status

Why do i need those debugging?

  • I need access to modern models and i’m can verify my organization

Why i need new models?

  • Coding, building website and finish some my open-source projects

What if still can’t verify or OpenAI can’t help here?

  • I would like to ask refund to use other AI/LLM provider to finish my task

I was not able to verify but i don’t know from where appears the DECLINED status.

And i need to access new models. My account status is Tier 4.

I don’t have access and that’s frustating. I search for similar issue, have not found solution. Uploading image fails for me

You will need to verify your organization via the platform’s general organization settings.
If this option is currently not available to your organization then there is unfortunately nothing that can be done.

You will need to contact help.openai.com for any further inquiries.

this generic answer doesnt solve the problem I have same issue, the verify button doesnt appear on the page it just says

Yes, i have same issue but i can’t upload image (i don’t know why). I don’t know why my/our account/organizations can’t be verified?

So currently we just spent our money to nowhere? No use and no refund?
Or use dumper models?

Has the verification never been there or has the verification process failed first?

It appears to me the verification is currently not available to your organization.

Sorry to hear that this is an issue you learned about after the fact.
I suggest to reach out to help.openai.com and ask for a refund.

It has never been there. Somehow it thinks it is rejected

Thank you. On that page no contact mail or chat, at least on my country (no VPN does help).

Is this mail correct? support@openai.com

I had the same issue
Tier 4 but I didn’t receive any request for information to verify my organization

same thing , it asks to setup payment to verify an org ( which is needed to access gpt-image model that I wanna use)
And then in verification I tried 3 ids but it ends up saying “unable to verify” for all , retrying on the link says it has expired . forever , it just doesnt regenerate .

So i just spent money for nothing ?

@vb As OpenAI support declined refund our money can you contact to higher manager and get our problem solved? We will be grateful if you can do this because in first message of this post have more than 10 similar/related issues.

We need two options, we do not asking any other impossible solutions:

  • Refund our money
  • Help our organization (or personal organization) get verified

Thank you

I have same problem here [Help] "Organization could not be verified" - #7 by Kazza

Go to this link when logged into the API, and you should see the verification link below your OrgID.

https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/general

Follow the directions, upload images of your ID and do the face scan.
