Before sending one, it now checks whether the model is allowed. If not, the request is stopped with the message \"This request would go to a model that is not allowed\".\n\n**Why**\n\nRestrictions on which models an organization allows now cover these side requests too, not only the main conversation.\n\n- Area: Models\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: both\n- Heads-up: yes"}
