# OpenAI Platform

> Learn how to connect Opal with OpenAI Platform.

Opal's integration with OpenAI Platform allows you to manage access to OpenAI projects and service accounts.

## Supported resources

| Resource                        | Read | Grant and revoke access |
| ------------------------------- | ---- | ----------------------- |
| OpenAI Projects                 | ✔️   | ✔️                      |
| OpenAI Project Service Accounts | ✔️   |                         |

## Requirements

Before you begin, you must:

* Be an Opal Admin

## 1. Retrieve an API token in OpenAI

To allow Opal to access to your OpenAI projects and accounts, you must first create an [admin API key](https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/admin-api-keys). Use the following permissions scopes for the API token.

| Resource                | Permissions |
| ----------------------- | ----------- |
| Fine-tuning Checkpoints | None        |
| Audit Logs Scope        | None        |
| Management API Scope    | Write       |
| Usage API Scope         | None        |

Save the token, as you won't be able to retrieve it later.

## 2. Create OpenAI app in Opal

In Opal, go to **Inventory** > **+App** and select **OpenAI Platform**. Name your OpenAI Platform app, provide a description, and enter the token you generated in step 1.

After you save the app, you can import roles from **...** > **Import items**.
