Connecting OpenAI to your Embed Workflow automations unlocks powerful AI capabilities—like natural language processing, summarization, and content generation—directly within your workflows.
Whether you’re building customer support bots, automating data entry, or enhancing decision-making with GPT models, this integration enables you to streamline tasks that normally require human input.
Luckily, integrating OpenAI with Embed Workflow takes just a few steps and allows you to start building workflows with GPT-based actions immediately.
This guide walks you through the process, from generating an API key in OpenAI to configuring your integration in Embed Workflow and enabling it within your tenant. Follow the steps below to get started.
1. OpenAI Account
Login to your OpenAI account. Then navigate to your API Keys to generate one for Embed Workflow.
2. Add the Integration
Log into Embed Workflow and open your integrations. Click on “Setup ChatGPT with OpenAI”.
Name it something like: “production_open_ai”, add your API Key, and click save.
3. Set your tenant
Go to your tenants. Choose which tenant you want to update. Use the default if you aren’t sure. Now set your Open AI integration to the integration you just created.
4. Workflow Editor
Finally, you can start using your OpenAI actions.
Here is a 50-second video walking you through an example:

David Amrani is the founder and CEO of Embed Workflow. After building three custom workflow automation systems from scratch—each taking over 8 months at companies like Brivity, a healthcare startup, and Resorcity—he saw the gap between bloated iPaaS tools and what SaaS companies actually need.
In 2022, he launched Embed Workflow: a white-labeled, embeddable, high-performance solution designed for startups. With 10+ years in engineering leadership and deep expertise in automation architecture, he’s building the tool he wished he’d had.
