Glow’s Codex integration collects organization-wide usage, analytics, and audit data from the OpenAI platform — including activity generated by Codex CLI. It is a single connection authenticated with one OpenAI organization admin key that authorizes every /organization endpoint. The usage data spans every family the Admin API exposes:
  • Completions — token usage and model requests (Codex CLI activity lands here)
  • Embeddings — input tokens and model requests
  • Moderations — input tokens and model requests
  • Images — image counts and model requests, by source and size
  • Audio speeches (text-to-speech) — characters and model requests
  • Audio transcriptions (speech-to-text) — seconds and model requests
  • Vector stores — storage bytes per project
  • Code interpreter — session counts per project

​
Prerequisites

An OpenAI organization with owner access to the OpenAI platform
An organization admin key (only org owners can create one)

​
Setup Instructions

​
Create the Admin Key

1

Open the OpenAI platform as an org owner

Log in to the OpenAI platform as an organization owner. Only owners can mint admin keys.
2

Open the Admin keys settings

Navigate to Settings → Organization → Admin keys.
3

Create the admin key

Create a new admin key (the value begins with sk-admin-) and give it a descriptive name (e.g., “Glow Integration”). The single key authorizes every /organization endpoint Glow reads — users, projects, all usage families, and audit logs.
4

Copy the key

Copy and securely store the key value. It is displayed only once.

​
Complete the Integration

1

Provide the credential

Provide the admin key to your Glow representative or enter it in the Glow console.
2

Connect in the Glow console

In the Glow console, open Integrations → Codex and enter the admin key in the connection drawer.

​
Troubleshooting

The admin key is invalid, has been revoked, or is not an admin key. Confirm the key value begins with sk-admin- and was created under Settings → Organization → Admin keys. A standard project API key (sk-...) cannot read the /organization endpoints — re-mint an admin key if needed.
Glow fetches usage over a rolling lookback window and re-fetches it each run to recover any late-arriving records. The most recent day may not be fully populated until OpenAI finishes aggregating it.
The OpenAI Admin API is rate limited. Glow automatically backs off and retries (honoring the Retry-After header) when it hits the limit, so large organizations may take longer to sync on the first run.
