AI is completely optional. You can create, edit, organize, attach files to, and review case updates without using AI.
To use AI-assisted summaries, your organization must connect its own OpenAI API key in Settings > AI. An authorized owner or administrator manages this account-scoped connection. Never include an API key in an update, attachment, or support message.
Your case data remains your organization’s data. Using your own API key connects AI processing to your organization’s provider account. When you request a summary, the content submitted for processing is sent to OpenAI. Provider terms and your account’s data-handling settings govern that processing; using your own key does not mean the content stays entirely inside CaseWyze or guarantee zero retention.
The saved summary is a new update with AI-assisted attribution and source update references. It does not replace the original entries.
AI summaries use your role’s default visibility access group when saved. Confirm that the summarized information is appropriate for that audience. If no usable default group is configured, an administrator must correct the setup before saving.
Ask your administrator to check the API connection and provider account. You can continue writing and managing updates manually while AI is unavailable.
