Sixth supports accessing models directly through the official OpenAI API. Website: https://openai.com/

​
Getting an API Key

  1. Sign Up/Sign In: Visit the OpenAI Platform. You’ll need to create an account or sign in if you already have one.
  2. Navigate to API Keys: Once logged in, go to the API keys section of your account.
  3. Create a Key: Click on “Create new secret key”. It’s good practice to give your key a descriptive name (e.g., “Sixth API Key”).
  4. Copy the Key: Crucial: Copy the generated API key immediately. For security reasons, OpenAI will not show it to you again. Store this key in a safe and secure location.
