OpenAI announces the Admin plugin for ChatGPT Work and Codex

OpenAI unveiled a new ChatGPT Admin plugin designed to empower workspace administrators with enhanced control over user management, permissions, and usage analytics. The plugin allows admins to perform various tasks directly within ChatGPT Work and Codex, streamlining day-to-day operations.

Key features of the Admin plugin include:

1. Managing users and groups: Add or remove members, update group memberships, and handle onboarding, offboarding, and team changes.

2. Controlling access and permissions: Review effective permissions, troubleshoot access issues, and regulate feature or model access based on roles or groups.

3. Monitoring usage and spending: Analyze credit usage, identify areas for additional enablement, and manage member group usage limits. Approve or deny usage requests with contextual information.

During a demonstration, OpenAI's Aarti Bagul showcased the plugin's capabilities by preparing for a monthly AI rollout review. She queried ChatGPT Work about adoption and credit usage trends across teams over the past 30 days, requesting charts to highlight significant changes. The demo displayed how the plugin can analyze trends, provide additional breakdowns, address clarifications, approve usage requests, and even generate a presentation deck to share in a Slack channel.

OpenAI envisions several potential uses for the Admin plugin, such as automating recurring admin workflows, scaling administration with existing controls, and supporting internal IT operations. The plugin is currently accessible through the Plugins directory within ChatGPT Work. To explore more about this new tool, visit the provided link.
