---

AgentOps seamlessly integrates with [OpenAI's Python SDK](https://github.com/openai/openai-python), allowing you to track and analyze all your OpenAI API calls automatically.

## Installation

<CodeGroup>
```bash pip
pip install agentops openai
```
```bash poetry
poetry add agentops openai
```
```bash uv
uv pip install agentops openai
```
</CodeGroup>

## Setting Up API Keys

Before using OpenAI with AgentOps, you need to set up your API keys. You can obtain:
- **OPENAI_API_KEY**: From the [OpenAI Platform](https://platform.openai.com/api-keys)
- **AGENTOPS_API_KEY**: From your [AgentOps Dashboard](https://app.agentops.ai/)

Then to set them up, you can either export them as environment variables or set them in a `.env` file.

<CodeGroup>
```bash Export to CLI
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"
export AGENTOPS_API_KEY="your_agentops_api_key_here"
```
```txt Set in .env file
OPENAI_API_KEY="your_openai_api_key_here"
AGENTOPS_API_KEY="your_agentops_api_key_here"
```
</CodeGroup>

Then load the environment variables in your Python code:

```python
from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os

# Load environment variables from .env file
load_dotenv()

# Set up environment variables with fallback values
os.environ["OPENAI_API_KEY"] = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
os.environ["AGENTOPS_API_KEY"] = os.getenv("AGENTOPS_API_KEY")
```

## Usage

Initialize AgentOps at the beginning of your application to automatically track all OpenAI API calls:

```python
import agentops
from openai import OpenAI
      
# Initialize AgentOps
agentops.init()

# Create OpenAI client
client = OpenAI()

# Make API calls as usual - AgentOps will track them automatically
response = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4",
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"}
    ]
)

print(response.choices[0].message.content)
```

## Examples

<CodeGroup>
```python Streaming
import agentops
from openai import OpenAI

# Initialize AgentOps
agentops.init()

# Create OpenAI client
client = OpenAI()

# Make a streaming API call
stream = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="gpt-4o-mini",
    messages=[
        {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant."},
        {"role": "user", "content": "Write a short poem about AI."}
    ],
    stream=True
)

# Process the streaming response
for chunk in stream:
    if chunk.choices[0].delta.content is not None:
        print(chunk.choices[0].delta.content, end="")
```

```python Function Calling

# Initialize AgentOps
agentops.init()

# Create OpenAI client
