API Usage & Billing Problems (Discrepancies)

[robj]

A couple months ago, I thought my API Keys were exposed:

API Limits & Tracking (Exposed Keys?)

I’ve only used about $10/month in OpenAI API credits since I started testing it. Then suddenly, Soft Limit hit. HARD LIMIT HIT! My account spent $50 overnight and I panicked. Rushed to my OpenAI account settings but couldn’t find any way to sort or differentiate between API keys so I’ve got absolutely no way of tracking down what may have happened. A few questions: (1) Should I delete all my API keys and start fresh, assuming one of my keys was exposed/exploited? (2) Is it possible a script/…

I deleted all of my keys and started fresh. That seemed to resolve the problem temporarily, but now it’s back and worse.

My dashboard shows my newly created keys have NEVER been used:

Yet I’m racking up API fees:

How is this possible? My API Key has “never been used” yet I’m flying past my API soft/hard usage limits.

At this point, I’ve stopped using the API completely because I’ve got no clue what I’m actually paying for yet I’m still accruing expenses. Has anyone else experienced this?

I think the Playground and Dalle uses API credit too? Is it possible someone has access to that?

Hi,
Please see

Also ensure that you know and understand other users in your organisation (if any) and that you have no API keys in publicly available application, even if encrypted.

I’d like to add… last used might not be updating since around Oct 5, 2023…

Possible account management bug with API key "last used" not being updated

URL: https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys I haven’t had my “last used” date updated since October 5 for any API keys. Wonder if anyone else had noted this. [image]
