OpenAI Connection

The connection is part of the configuration of OpenAI actions and it is required in most cases.


Creating a New Connection

When adding an OpenAI action (such as Agent Model or Chat Completion), you can select an existing OpenAI connection or create a new one:

  1. Click on an OpenAI action in order to open the Properties panel.
  2. Click on the Connection field in order to select or create a connection. In the popup that shows up click on the New connection button.
  3. Fill out the required connection fields.

Properties

Name Description
Name A custom label for the connection. This name will be shown in dropdowns when selecting the connection in actions.
API Key Your personal or organizational OpenAI API key. This key authorizes requests from Flow to OpenAI's endpoints.

Important:

  • API keys can be created and managed in the OpenAI dashboard.
  • Keep your key private – it grants access to your OpenAI usage quota and billing.
