# Azure OpenAI
Azure OpenAI (opens new window) is a collaboration between Microsoft Azure and OpenAI (opens new window), an artificial intelligence research organization. Azure OpenAI is a cloud-based platform that enables users to build and deploy AI models. These models allow you to edit text, generate images, and perform classification. You can fine-tune and create models that are exposed internally using Azure OpenAI.
# API version
The Azure OpenAI connector uses the Azure OpenAI Service REST API (opens new window).
# How to connect to Azure OpenAI
The Azure OpenAI connector supports API key authentication. This process involves the following steps:
# Generate an API key
Refer to Azure OpenAI's documentation (opens new window) to learn how to generate your API key. Workato recommends that you store the API key safely, as it is only displayed once.
# Delegate a subdomain
The Azure OpenAI connector requires a subdomain to configure. You must delegate a subdomain in the Azure portal before establishing an Azure OpenAI connection in Workato. Refer to Azure OpenAI's documentation (opens new window) for information about Azure subdomains.
