#10073
validation_error
Invalid data type detected in request metadata; expected a string type.
This error has been identified and solved.
Reason
The 400 status error you are encountering, specifically the validation error for the request body's metadata -> data field, is likely due to the following reasons:
Incorrect Data Type
The error message indicates that a string (str) type is expected for the data field within the metadata, but the provided data does not match this type. This suggests that the data you are sending is not in the correct format or type as required by the OpenAI API.
Invalid JSON Payload
The OpenAI API expects a valid JSON payload, and any deviation from the expected structure or types can result in a 400 error. The error hints at a structural issue in the request body, specifically within the metadata section.
API Request Configuration
The error could also be related to how the API request is configured. For instance, if the headers or other parts of the request are not set correctly, it can lead to a "Bad Request" response from the server.
Solution
To fix the 400 status error related to the metadata field in the OpenAI API, you need to ensure the following:
Ensure that all values in the
metadatafield are strings, as the API expects string types for these values.Verify that the JSON payload is correctly formatted and valid.
Check that the API request headers and other configurations are set correctly.
Here are some key points to consider:
Use string values for
metadatafields.Validate the JSON structure of the request body.
Ensure correct API request headers and configurations.
