I found a similar unsolved discussion regarding a validation error with the OpenAI component in Langflow. The error message in that discussion was about not finding the openai_api_key and suggested adding it as an environment variable or passing it as a named parameter ^[1].

In your case, the error indicates that the api_key should be a valid string. Ensure that the OPENAI_API_KEY is correctly set as a string in your environment variables or passed directly to the component. Double-check that there are no issues with how the key is being stored or retrieved, such as incorrect formatting or encoding.

Hi,

Can you check out Flow execution order in your flow or langflow?
