DEVELOPER TOOL

Build your first Astra request.

A small, documented starting point for the Responses API.

Use GPT-6 Astra through the route that fits.

Astra is available through multiple documented routes. ChatGPT, Work, Codex, API, Copilot, Foundry, and third-party catalog access each have their own plan, account, client, or provider rules.

A route listing is not a promise that your account, plan, workspace, or region is eligible.

HowToUseAstra does not sell access to Astra. Route listings are editorial and do not promise eligibility, identical product terms, or provider endorsement.

Before you run it: this starter uses the published Responses API and gpt-6-astra identifier, but it does not include an API key, guess a JSON schema, or silently enable tools. Check the current official model guide before using it in production.

BEFORE YOU RUN IT

Check these details before you use the starter.

The starter covers the request shape. Your account, permissions, safety controls, and budget still need a separate check.

  1. Model identifier.Use gpt-6-astra and keep it configurable so a future snapshot can be pinned.
  2. Endpoint and auth.Keep the API key server-side; confirm account eligibility, base URL, and required headers.
  3. Request schema.Add only the input, reasoning, tool, file, structured-output, or streaming options your current official docs support.
  4. Limits and pricing.Use the published rates, cached-input rules, processing mode, and tier limits in the cost calculator.
