FAQs​

Expand FAQs

1. How does the OpenAI integration with nOps work?​

The integration connects directly to your OpenAI account using Admin API credentials. nOps fetches billing and usage data using your Admin API key, processes it, and displays the information within the Business Context+ platform for detailed cost analysis.

2. What permissions does the Admin API key require?​

The Admin API key must have read-only permissions to access billing and usage data. This ensures the key can access cost information without having permissions to make changes to your OpenAI account or create new resources.

3. Can I use an existing Admin API key?​

Yes, you can use an existing Admin API key as long as it has the appropriate permissions to access billing data. However, for security best practices, we recommend creating a dedicated Admin API key specifically for the nOps integration.

4. How long does it take for data to appear in nOps after setup?​

It may take up to 24 hours for the initial data synchronization to complete. After this period, your OpenAI billing data should be visible in the Cost Analysis tool.

5. What should I do if my billing data doesn't appear after 24 hours?​

If the data is not visible after 24 hours, check the following:

  • Verify that the Admin API key is correct and has not expired
  • Confirm that the Admin API key has the required permissions to access billing data
  • Ensure that there is actual billing activity in your OpenAI account
  • Check that the API key name is correctly entered in the integration setup

If the issue persists, contact nOps support for assistance.

6. Can I monitor multiple OpenAI accounts?​

Yes, you can monitor multiple OpenAI accounts by setting up separate integrations for each account. Each integration requires its own Admin API key with appropriate permissions. This allows you to track costs across different projects, departments, or environments.

7. What OpenAI costs are tracked in the integration?​

The integration tracks all costs associated with your OpenAI account, including:

  • API usage (GPT-4, GPT-3.5, etc.)
  • Fine-tuning costs
  • Embedding generation costs
  • Image generation (DALL-E) costs
  • Voice and speech-to-text (Whisper) costs
  • Any other billable services from OpenAI
