The provided image is invalid or the data is not recognized.

The 400 error you are encountering in the Azure OpenAI API is likely due to several possible reasons:

1. Invalid Request Payload: The payload you are passing to the API may not conform to the expected format or structure. In your case, the error message indicates that the payload is not of the expected type, specifically mentioning that it should be an array but is instead an object containing a function definition.

2. Incorrect API Version or Configuration: The API version or configuration might not support the type of request you are making. For example, function calling support was added in a specific preview version of the API, and using an older version could result in this error.

3. Missing or Incorrect Parameters: The request may be missing required parameters or contain parameters with incorrect types or values. The error message suggests that the functions parameter is not recognized, which could be due to missing or incorrect parameters in the request body.

4. Rate Limiting or Throttling: Although less likely to cause a 400 error directly, hitting rate limits can result in unexpected behavior, but the error message typically indicates a bad request rather than rate limiting issues.

5. API Key or Authentication Issues: While less likely in this specific context, incorrect or expired API keys can also lead to bad request errors, although the error message would typically be different.
