Hi guys, I have the same error message. So I checked my OpenAI quotas and I saw that I had used $0.03 of my $18.00 free credits. So I did not reach the free limit. Anyone have an idea why have this 429 error ?

I have same problem! Has it been resolved since then?

No, I tried to generate a new key and use it but the problem was the same. Then I noticed that into the Usage panel of my OpenAI account the free credits that I had expired the 1st April… 😞

for me was that i did not have anyumore free credits, so i needed to upgrade to a payed plan, onw i did that i was able to use the api. hope someone will find this helpful 😃

This error message indicates that you have hit your assigned rate limit for the API. This means that you have submitted too many tokens or requests in a short period of time and have exceeded the number of requests allowed. This could happen for several reasons, such as:

  • You are using a loop or a script that makes frequent or concurrent requests.
  • You are sharing your API key with other users or applications.
  • You are using a free plan that has a low rate limit.

To resolve this error, please follow these steps:

  • Pace your requests and avoid making unnecessary or redundant calls.
  • If you are using a loop or a script, make sure to implement a backoff mechanism or a retry logic that respects the rate limit and the response headers. You can read more about our rate limiting policy and best practices here.
  • If you are sharing your organization with other users, note that limits are applied per organization and not per user. It is worth checking the usage of the rest of your team as this will contribute to this limit.
  • If you are using a free or low-tier plan, consider upgrading to a pay-as-you-go plan that offers a higher rate limit.

I generated an openai key and I get the same message at the FIRST use

Thanks! I had the same issue and upgraded to a paid plan. Now it works!

Is there any other way of extending or getting more free credits?

i’m getting the same response
