How can I ask questions about my document?
My OpenAI API free trial is expired or inactive even though I've never used it...
You can double check if it is indeed expired by trying to run a prompt on the official playground.
Your OpenAI free trial will not work if you have already used the phone number with which you verified your OpenAI account for another OpenAI account. Creating a new account with a new phone number should provide you with a working free trial.
Why is my response cut or incomplete?
Models have a maximum token limit, which is the maximum total number of tokens that can be used in both the input and the response. This means models may not provide complete responses to long queries or when a large portion of text is selected as input. Check the token count for your input in GPT for Word sidebar.
To stay within the token limit, click on Clear chat to delete your chat history or break up your work into smaller parts. You can also select a model with a higher limit (context window).
Can I use my custom GPT and Assistants API?
