First we'll need to install their Python package:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pip install openai
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Accessing the API requires an API key, which you can get by creating an account and heading [here](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys). Once we have a key we'll want to set it as an environment variable by running:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
export OPENAI_API_KEY="..."
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you'd prefer not to set an environment variable you can pass the key in directly via the `openai_api_key` named parameter when initiating the OpenAI LLM class:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
from langchain.llms import OpenAI
|
|
|
|
llm = OpenAI(openai_api_key="...")
|
|
```
