Describe the bug

API Error on OpenAI when calling in the visual studio code. I don't know how to fix this.

raise error.APIConnectionError( openai.error.APIConnectionError: Error communicating with OpenAI: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.openai.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /v1/chat/completions (Caused by SSLError(SSLCertVerificationError(1, '[SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:992)')))

To Reproduce

1. install visual studio code
2. enter: import openai

openai.api_key = "API Key"

completion = openai.ChatCompletion.create(model="gpt-3.5-turbo", messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Write an essay about penguins"}]) print(completion.choices[0].message.content) 3. Run: issue occurred

Hi @newmagicjosh,

I'm not able to reproduce this on my end. I suspect there might be some sort of certificate issue on your end. If you have any other details that might help diagnose the issue, I'd be happy to look again.

[newmagicjosh]

what do you mean by certificate issue? What certificate issues I can get? I need to know more specifically to work and make this happen.

Thank you

I suspect some part of your configuration is unable to validate your local SSL cert. Maybe try something like https://komodor.com/learn/how-to-fix-ssl-certificate-problem-unable-to-get-local-issuer-certificate-git-error/ to fix this issue?

In the meantime, since I don't think this is an issue with the openai repo, I'm going to close this issue.
