# OpenAI

Turngate ingests audit logs from your OpenAI organization so you can monitor administrative actions across your ChatGPT Enterprise, ChatGPT Team, or API-only OpenAI organization.

## Setting Up

### Preparing your OpenAI Organization

To set up the OpenAI integration you must be an **Owner** of the OpenAI organization you want to connect. Audit log access is scoped at the organization level, so a single Data Source will cover all projects in that organization.

{% hint style="info" %}
The Audit Logs API is available on ChatGPT Enterprise, ChatGPT Team, and OpenAI API organizations that have an admin plan. If you do not see the **Admin keys** section described below, your organization may not have access enabled — contact OpenAI support.
{% endhint %}

1. Log in to the [OpenAI platform dashboard](https://platform.openai.com/) and switch to the organization you want to connect using the org switcher in the top-left.
2. Open **Settings → Organization → Admin keys**.
3. Click **Create new admin key**.
4. Give the key a descriptive name (e.g. `Turngate Audit Log Reader`).
5. Click **Create key** and copy the value immediately. OpenAI will not show it again.

You will also need your **Organization ID**, which is shown on **Settings → Organization → General** (it begins with `org-`).

### Setting up the OpenAI Data Source in the Turngate App

Once you have your admin key and Organization ID, head back to the Turngate App.

1. Click **Data Sources** in the navigation bar on the left.
2. Click **Install** on the **OpenAI** selection.
3. Give the Data Source a name for your own reference.
4. Paste in the **Organization ID** and **Admin Key** you generated above.
5. Click **Install**.

Turngate will validate the credentials and begin pulling audit logs. OpenAI retains audit logs for the past 30 days, and Turngate will backfill whatever is available at install time.

## What Gets Ingested

The OpenAI Audit Logs API exposes administrative events such as:

* User invitations, additions, removals, and role changes
* Project creation, updates, archival, and membership changes
* API key creation and deletion (both user and service account keys)
* Service account creation and deletion
* SSO and SCIM configuration changes
* Login events for users in the organization

Turngate does **not** ingest the content of prompts or completions — only administrative audit events.
