  </Card>

  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Prerequisites

* **Owner** access in your ChatGPT Business or Enterprise workspace, so you can invite the integration account.

## Setup

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add OpenAI ChatGPT in AccessOwl">
    Either add a new application or open Applications and click the +-symbol, then continue.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invite the integration account as Owner">
    AccessOwl shows you the integration account's email address. In ChatGPT:

    * Open **Workspace settings** and go to the **Members** tab.
    * Click **Invite member**.
    * Enter the integration account's email address.
    * Set the role to **Owner** and choose a seat type.
    * Send the invite.

    <Note>
      The integration account needs Owner because only Owners can change member roles and seat types in a ChatGPT Business or Enterprise workspace. To provision users with the correct role and seat type, the integration account must hold Owner permissions.
    </Note>
  </Step>
</Steps>

## FAQ

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Do I need to provision both ChatGPT and Codex?">
    No. The **ChatGPT** seat already includes Codex, so anyone on a ChatGPT seat gets both. You assign one seat type per user, and "ChatGPT" is the one that covers both products. On June 24, 2026 OpenAI removed the separate seat type on the Business plan, so depending on your plan you may not see a seat type to choose at all, and provisioning a ChatGPT seat then provisions ChatGPT and Codex together.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="Which ChatGPT seat types does AccessOwl support?">
    AccessOwl supports both seat types OpenAI offers:

    * **ChatGPT**: includes both ChatGPT and Codex.
    * **Codex**: Codex only, billed pay-as-you-go.

    Only one seat type can be applied per user, so select the one that matches the access you want. For most users that is the ChatGPT seat, which already covers Codex.

## AccessOwl in ChatGPT

AccessOwl is also published as an app inside ChatGPT. Once connected, anyone in your ChatGPT workspace can ask ChatGPT about the SaaS apps available in your organization and submit access requests directly from a ChatGPT conversation.
