Hi @tacit topaz. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave:

The term "Error" in the context of OpenAI products and APIs generally refers to a situation where something has gone wrong during a request or operation. Errors can occur for various reasons, such as invalid input, network issues, or server-side problems.

In OpenAI's API and streaming responses, an error event typically includes details like an error code, a human-readable message, and sometimes additional context such as which parameter caused the error or which event triggered it. For example, an error object might look like this:

{
  "type": "error",
  "code": "ERR_SOMETHING",
  "message": "Something went wrong",
  "param": null,
  "sequence_number": 1
}

This means that an error occurred, and the message provides more information about what went wrong. The "code" helps identify the specific type of error, and "param" may indicate which parameter was problematic, if applicable. The session usually remains open, and most errors are recoverable, but you should monitor and log these messages for troubleshooting purposes Error event structure Realtime error event details.

If you encounter an error, check the error message and code for guidance on what went wrong and how to address it. If the error persists, you may need to adjust your request or consult OpenAI's documentation or support resources.
