Request body
Whether or not to store the output of this chat completion request for use in our model distillation or evals products.
Developer-defined tags and values used for filtering completions in the dashboard.
Number between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize new tokens based on their existing frequency in the text so far, decreasing the model's likelihood to repeat the same line verbatim.
See more information about frequency and presence penalties.
Modify the likelihood of specified tokens appearing in the completion.
Accepts a JSON object that maps tokens (specified by their token ID in the tokenizer) to an associated bias value from -100 to 100. Mathematically, the bias is added to the logits generated by the model prior to sampling. The exact effect will vary per model, but values between -1 and 1 should decrease or increase likelihood of selection; values like -100 or 100 should result in a ban or exclusive selection of the relevant token.
Whether to return log probabilities of the output tokens or not. If true, returns the log probabilities of each output token returned in the content of message.
An integer between 0 and 20 specifying the number of most likely tokens to return at each token position, each with an associated log probability. logprobs must be set to true if this parameter is used.
The maximum number of tokens that can be generated in the chat completion. This value can be used to control costs for text generated via API.
This value is now deprecated in favor of max_completion_tokens, and is not compatible with o1 series models.
An upper bound for the number of tokens that can be generated for a completion, including visible output tokens and reasoning tokens.
How many chat completion choices to generate for each input message. Note that you will be charged based on the number of generated tokens across all of the choices. Keep n as 1 to minimize costs.
Output types that you would like the model to generate for this request. Most models are capable of generating text, which is the default:
["text"]
The gpt-4o-audio-preview model can also be used to generate audio. To request that this model generate both text and audio responses, you can use:
["text", "audio"]
Number between -2.0 and 2.0. Positive values penalize new tokens based on whether they appear in the text so far, increasing the model's likelihood to talk about new topics.
See more information about frequency and presence penalties.
This feature is in Beta. If specified, our system will make a best effort to sample deterministically, such that repeated requests with the same seed and parameters should return the same result. Determinism is not guaranteed, and you should refer to the system_fingerprint response parameter to monitor changes in the backend.
Specifies the latency tier to use for processing the request. This parameter is relevant for customers subscribed to the scale tier service:
- If set to 'auto', and the Project is Scale tier enabled, the system will utilize scale tier credits until they are exhausted.
- If set to 'auto', and the Project is not Scale tier enabled, the request will be processed using the default service tier with a lower uptime SLA and no latency guarentee.
- If set to 'default', the request will be processed using the default service tier with a lower uptime SLA and no latency guarentee.
- When not set, the default behavior is 'auto'.
When this parameter is set, the response body will include the service_tier utilized.
If set, partial message deltas will be sent, like in ChatGPT. Tokens will be sent as data-only server-sent events as they become available, with the stream terminated by a data: [DONE] message. Example Python code.
What sampling temperature to use, between 0 and 2. Higher values like 0.8 will make the output more random, while lower values like 0.2 will make it more focused and deterministic.
We generally recommend altering this or top_p but not both.
An alternative to sampling with temperature, called nucleus sampling, where the model considers the results of the tokens with top_p probability mass. So 0.1 means only the tokens comprising the top 10% probability mass are considered.
We generally recommend altering this or temperature but not both.
Whether to enable parallel function calling during tool use.
A unique identifier representing your end-user, which can help OpenAI to monitor and detect abuse. Learn more.
Example request
{
"n": 1,
"temperature": 1,
"top_p": 1,
"user": "user-1234"
}Response
OK
A unique identifier for the chat completion.
The Unix timestamp (in seconds) of when the chat completion was created.
The model used for the chat completion.
The service tier used for processing the request. This field is only included if the service_tier parameter is specified in the request.
This fingerprint represents the backend configuration that the model runs with.
Can be used in conjunction with the seed request parameter to understand when backend changes have been made that might impact determinism.
The object type, which is always chat.completion.
