OpenAI key changed

I mistakenly delete the api key I used for linqpad in my Open AI account. I've generate a new one but I don't know where I need to set it in LINQPad. Can you assist?

Either Edit | AI > Settings or Edit | Preferences and then click the AI Settings button.

Certainly! To set your new API key in LINQPad for interacting with OpenAI, you can follow these steps:

Open LINQPad and navigate to the query window.

Click on the "Query" menu in the menu bar, then select "Set Program Preferences."

In the Preferences window, select the "Query" tab.

Scroll down to the "Additional References and Namespace Imports" section.

Click on the "Add..." button to add a new reference.

In the Reference Manager dialog, select the "Browse" tab.

Navigate to the folder where LINQPad is installed (typically "C:\Program Files\LINQPad" or "C:\Program Files (x86)\LINQPad").

Locate and select the "OpenAI.Net.dll" file (this DLL file is usually included in the OpenAI.NET SDK).

Click "OK" to add the reference.

Now, in your LINQPad query, you can use the OpenAIApi class from the OpenAI namespace to set your new API key.

Here's an example of how to set the API key in LINQPad:

csharp
Copy code
void Main()
{
// Set your Source API key
OpenAIApi.ApiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY";

// Rest of your LINQPad query code
// ...

}
Replace "YOUR_API_KEY" with your actual API key.

After setting the API key, you can proceed to use the OpenAI API within your LINQPad queries.

Make sure to save your changes in LINQPad so that the API key is persisted for future use.
