API not working since 26-December

TL;DR: to this day 31-Dec and since 26-December not a single of the API calls of my crawler has obtained a single successful response.

I´m receiving information from a crawler I made this summer every 24 hours. Such crawler is supposed to make small summaries of news media using chat completion via the API.

From the day after Christmas my crawler has not been able to generate a single summary. Not even after getting a new, different API key that is stored locally.

Here´s the most pertinent lines to this post. This is related to chat completion in JavaScript.

            const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
                model: "gpt-4",
                messages: [{ role: "user", content: content }],
                stream: true,
                max_tokens: maxTokens,
                temperature: 0.1,
                top_p: 0.1,
                frequency_penalty: 0.0,
                presence_penalty: 0.0,
            });

Im posting this as requested in a related post

What’s the error message you are getting?
What have you tried so far to resolve the issue? Have there been any recent changes made to the code or the environment?

I am asking because we haven’t received other reports describing such an issue with the API.

There have not been changes before the 26-December.

The error message I got is this one: "You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs"

I noticed somehow it didn’t auto-charge last time it went below the given amount, so I did a manual payment.

Now, several minutes after doing the payment, it works again.

Seems like the auto-recharge mechanism failed

Glad this problem is resolved.
Feel free to drop by once in a while.

Happy new Year!

This has happened to me.

For some reason it started blowing 429’s at me despite having an auto-charge authority.

Really annoying!

I wonder if it started around the time they created the new Pro sub and their payment systems just became totally backed up …

Actually the same background problem remains.
For some reason the auto recharge isn’t working

Well, the recharge not working is different from the API not working.
I’ll pass this along to OpenAI.
