AuthenticationError

Short Course Q&A ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers
1

Hi,

I’m trying to run again some exercesis from the ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers course but I got this error:

AuthenticationError: Your authentication token is not from a valid issuer.

I deleted the cookies from 7 days ago, and I got the same result.

Regards.

This happened to e today in the middle of the l2-guidelines notebook.

AuthenticationError: Your authentication token is not from a valid issuer.

on this line:

Cell In[11], line 18
      1 text = f"""
      2 You should express what you want a model to do by \ 
      3 providing instructions that are as clear and \ 
   (...)
     11 more detailed and relevant outputs.
     12 """
     13 prompt = f"""
     14 Summarize the text delimited by triple backticks \ 
     15 into a single sentence.
     16 ```{text}```
     17 """
---> 18 response = get_completion(prompt)
     19 print(response)

Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Eddie

Same here also.

Authentication error is because of 2 factors as it is not getting any response from the chat GPT as the key is not recognized .
First – Modify the program by deleting. “from dotenv import load_dotenv, find_dotenv
_ = load_dotenv(find_dotenv()) # read local .env file”

Then place the OPEN_AI_KEY as you have it from platform.openai like----
openai.api_key = “sk-q5YbaIFlwn70KwD8gdy*************************SEF”
Second please make sure your key is valid if you are using the free credit

FYI: this will throw a Syntax error:
Cell In[2], line 4
openai.api_key = “sk-…”
^
SyntaxError: invalid character ‘“’ (U+201C)

Replace the " with ’ and it will operate as expected
