type_error
The provided JSON is not of the expected "object" type for the response format specification.
This error has been identified and solved.
Reason
The error "json_object is not of type object - response_format" with a 400 status code in the OpenAI API indicates that the request you are making has an invalid or malformed parameter. Here are the possible reasons:
Invalid Request Format
The error suggests that the response_format
parameter is not formatted correctly as a JSON object. This could be due to incorrect syntax or an improper data type being used for this parameter.
Parameter Type Mismatch
The API expects response_format
to be a specific type (typically a JSON object), but the request is providing a different type, leading to the "Bad Request" error.
Configuration Issues
It may also indicate that there is a configuration issue in how the request is being constructed, possibly due to incorrect headers or other request parameters that do not align with the API's expectations.
Solution
To fix the 400 status error related to the response_format
parameter in the OpenAI API, you need to address the following key points:
Remove the
response_format
parameter: Since not all models support thejson_object
response format, removing this parameter will allow the API to default to the standard text format supported by most models.Use a supported model: If you need a specific response format, ensure that the model you are using supports it. For example, some models like
gpt-4
might support different response formats thangpt-3.5-turbo
.Check request syntax and parameters: Ensure that all parameters, including
response_format
, are correctly formatted and match the expected types and structures defined in the API documentation.
Here are the steps to resolve the issue:
Remove or adjust the
response_format
parameter according to the model's capabilities.Verify that the request syntax and parameters align with the API's expectations.
Use a model that supports the desired response format if necessary.
