The model “gpt-5.6-sol” is not available.
The link you opened specified a model that isn’t available for your org. We’re using the default model instead.
Could anyone explain the reason behind this error? Specifically, I am wondering if this is related to my organization’s current API Tier level (e.g., do I need to be on a higher tier to access it?)
Welcome to the community @ytsong0424!
GPT-5.6 Sol should be available from Tier 1 onward, but it isn’t supported on the Free tier. So if your organization is currently on the Free tier, that would explain the error.
I am tier 3 and the models are still not available in playground.
Thanks for confirming @micycle and also welcome to the community.
I can´t be certain, but this could be related to the rollout or temporary access issue. This has happened before with new model releases. I would keep eye on it today and trying to refresh the page later. If you still don´t have access by the end of the day, I would contact support.
Thank you for the reply! I actually have multiple organizations under my account. I can access GPT-5.6 Sol without any issues in the organization that is on Usage Tier 5. However, in another organization that is on Usage Tier 3, it still isn’t working in the playground.
Thank you for clarifying!
As I mentioned above, it could have to do with the rollout or temporary access issue and since you can access in Tier 5, but not Tier 3, that seems to be like one possible explanation.
Just confirming that we’re also receiving the same error with our tier 3 organisation. Let’s hope it’s fixed shortly 
Might be by design so be patient.
I’m Tier 5 but even for me it ended up unavailable yesterday due to the overwhelming amount of load.
Tier 1, no 5.6 three models, only 5.5 or lower.
So, I was going to update my prompt on Open Ai Dashboard/Chatt and responses. Please bear in mind that I’m not a pro.
However, where I should be able to choose gpt-5.6, the highest is only gpt-5.5?
Check my picture what I mean?
Can anyone help?
I had this issue around 8 hours a go and have been watching this thread all day - i can confirm the model is now available for me. It’s a slow rollout most likely.
