OpenAI API Organization Authentication
OpenAI allows you to use the latest models by authenticating your API Organization.
API Organization authentication is an added authentication process to mitigate use cases that violate the API usage policy.
*To authenticate, you need to [add a payment method]
(OpenAI_APIKey.md#register-payment-information) for API development.
What You Need for Authentication
API Organization requires a valid government-issued ID from a supported country. Please prepare at least one of the following IDs before proceeding with authentication.
*Because the authentication process involves taking a photo of the ID holder's face with a camera for identity verification, please ensure that the authentication is performed by the individual themselves.
- Driver's license
- Passport
- Residence card
- My Number card (Individual Number Card)
- Visa
Also, a smartphone is required for authentication because it uses a camera.
(Even if you access it from a PC, you will be guided to move to a smartphone via a QR code during the authentication process.)

On the next screen, take a photo of the identification document using the camera. (If prompted for camera access, select Allow.)Perform facial recognition for identity verification. Continue following the instructions on the screen.
Once the API Organization authentication is complete, the Verifications display on the API platform will show "Organization Verified," and you will be able to use OpenAI's latest models.
