New Features

• Send a user-specific, opaque safety identifier in Next-Gen Responses API requests to help OpenAI monitor and detect abuse. This allows OpenAI to provide more actionable feedback in the event that they detect any policy violations.

Assistants

Updates & Improvements

• Increase file membership checks and user permission checks when removing unused files during assistant creation or editing.
