Azure OpenAI API with openai 1.0

Question

I was using the following script with openai==0.28.0. But it broke with openai==1.0.0

With the new version, one has to create an OpenAI client passing the api key and use client.chat.completions.create

I'm not sure how to work with the new API

import openai
openai.api_key = 'xxxxxxxxxx'
openai.api_base = 'https://xxxxxxx.openai.azure.com/'
openai.api_type = 'azure'
openai.api_version = '2023-08-01-preview'
deployment_name='gpt4'
# Send a completion call to generate an answer
response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(engine=deployment_name, temperature = 1,
  messages = [
   {'role': 'user', 'content': 'what is the meaning of life'}
  ])
print(response)

Hi @Ravi K

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A! Thanks for posting the question.

If you are using openai version > 0.28.1 then you need to change your python code like below to call a gpt-35-turbo or gpt-4 model

import os
from openai import AzureOpenAI

client = AzureOpenAI(
  api_key = os.getenv("AZURE_OPENAI_KEY"),  
  api_version = "2023-05-15",
  azure_endpoint = os.getenv("AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT")
)

response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="mygpt4", # model = "deployment_name".
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "Assistant is a large language model trained by OpenAI."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Who were the founders of Microsoft?"}
    ]
)

#print(response)
print(response.model_dump_json(indent=2))
print(response.choices[0].message.content)

Please refer to the documentation for details.

Please let me know if you have any other questions.
