How can I handle errors when using the OpenAI API?

You can handle errors by checking the response status and implementing retry logic for transient errors.

What types of errors should I expect from the API?

Common errors include rate limits, invalid requests, and server errors. Each has specific status codes.

How do I implement retry logic in my code?

You can use a loop to retry the request a few times with a delay between attempts if you encounter a transient error.

Are there any best practices for error handling?

Yes, always log errors, provide user-friendly messages, and ensure your application can gracefully recover from failures.
