### Setup
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
To start we'll need to install the OpenAI Python package:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```bash
 | 
						|
pip install openai
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Accessing the API requires an API key, which you can get by creating an account and heading [here](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys). Once we have a key we'll want to set it as an environment variable by running:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```bash
 | 
						|
export OPENAI_API_KEY="..."
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
If you'd prefer not to set an environment variable you can pass the key in directly via the `openai_api_key` named parameter when initiating the OpenAI LLM class:
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```python
 | 
						|
from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
embeddings_model = OpenAIEmbeddings(openai_api_key="...")
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Otherwise you can initialize without any params:
 | 
						|
```python
 | 
						|
from langchain.embeddings import OpenAIEmbeddings
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
embeddings_model = OpenAIEmbeddings()
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `embed_documents`
 | 
						|
#### Embed list of texts
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```python
 | 
						|
embeddings = embeddings_model.embed_documents(
 | 
						|
    [
 | 
						|
        "Hi there!",
 | 
						|
        "Oh, hello!",
 | 
						|
        "What's your name?",
 | 
						|
        "My friends call me World",
 | 
						|
        "Hello World!"
 | 
						|
    ]
 | 
						|
)
 | 
						|
len(embeddings), len(embeddings[0])
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<CodeOutputBlock language="python">
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
(5, 1536)
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
</CodeOutputBlock>
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
### `embed_query`
 | 
						|
#### Embed single query
 | 
						|
Embed a single piece of text for the purpose of comparing to other embedded pieces of texts.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```python
 | 
						|
embedded_query = embeddings_model.embed_query("What was the name mentioned in the conversation?")
 | 
						|
embedded_query[:5]
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
<CodeOutputBlock language="python">
