Where to goAdmin Area → Setup → Settings → AI → OpenAI

Before you start

Use an account with Administrator and confirm the intended record or setting before making a change.
Follow the exact route above. If the screen or action is absent, check module activation, ownership and permissions rather than using another person’s account.
Use controlled test data for configuration, integration, email, AI, payment, portal or automation changes before production-wide use.

What you’ll accomplish

Verify key validity, account access and the selected model. The instructions reflect the supplied module’s registered menus, controller actions, views, settings and code-backed validation flow.

Follow these steps

Go to Admin Area → Setup → Settings → AI → OpenAI.
Select the relevant record, filter, report, model or configuration described below.
Use the displayed action or read the current values without altering unrelated data.
Compare the output with the code-backed rules and expected result in this guide.
Record or correct any mismatch before relying on the output in production.

How to confirm it worked

The supported troubleshoot openai authentication or model-access errors flow completes without bypassing permission or validation checks.
The resulting record, setting, status, file, delivery event or external response is visible from the relevant workspace.
Unexpected validation, provider or linked-record errors are investigated before retrying.

Security, privacy and operational checks

Restrict the API key and AI settings to authorised administrators.
Do not submit confidential, special-category or unnecessary personal data to the external AI provider.
Check generated text before using it in customer, staff, legal, financial or compliance communication.
Monitor provider billing and retention independently because this module has no built-in cost dashboard.
