Set api key on Windows

[corzel]

Hi guys!

Is there a way to set the API key without using the 'export' command because on Windows it doesn't work.

Regards!

@corzel on windows if you are using Powershell, checkout the docs here to export an environment variable
Basically, $Env:API_KEY = "api_key"

You could also use set, setx or add the environmental variable permanently in the settings.

If power shell doesn't work
On Windows:

Use the search bar in the Start menu to find “Edit the system environment variables”.

Click “Environment variables”

Use the upper “New…” button to add a User variable

Create a new variable called OPENAI_API_KEY and set the value to the secret key you got from your account settings on openai.com

Or of course GROQ_API_KEY 😉
