How to Use OpenAI o1 in the API

Check API Access Requirements: Verify that your OpenAI account is in Tier 5 usage level (requires $1,000 paid and 30+ days since first successful payment). Currently o1 models are only available to Tier 5 API users.
Generate API Key: Log in to the OpenAI platform and generate an API key from your account dashboard if you haven't already.
Install OpenAI SDK: Install the OpenAI Python package using pip: 'pip install openai'. Make sure you have version 0.0.59 or greater to use o1 models.
Initialize OpenAI Client: Import and initialize the OpenAI client with your API key: 'from openai import OpenAI; client = OpenAI(api_key='YOUR_API_KEY')
Choose o1 Model: Select either o1-preview (for complex reasoning with broad knowledge) or o1-mini (faster/cheaper version for coding/math/science) based on your needs.
Make API Request: Create a completion request specifying the o1 model and your prompt: 'completion = client.chat.completions.create(model='o1-preview', messages=[{'role': 'user', 'content': 'Your prompt here'}])'
Handle Response: Access the model's response from completion.choices[0].message.content. Note that o1 models currently have a rate limit of 20 requests per minute.
Consider Limitations: Be aware that o1 API currently lacks features like function calling, streaming, and system messages. OpenAI is working to add these features in future updates.
