# prepare your private openAI private key

If you are on linux, it should work as long as you don't close the command line after export the api key. However, if you are on windows, you may want to mannually set the api key as your enviroment variable.

how to use it on windows???

I also encountered this issue on Windows 11,I even manually set "OPENAI_API_KEY" in the system environment variable Who can tell me where the problem is? Thank you.

If you have manually set the system environment variable then just restart your device once, it'll run.
