Error testing api exceeded quota

File “D:\chatbot\env\lib\site-packages\openai_base_client.py”, line 1040, in _request
raise self._make_status_error_from_response(err.response) from None
openai.RateLimitError: Error code: 429 - {‘error’: {‘message’: ‘You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details. For more information on this error, read the docs: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/error-codes/api-errors.’, ‘type’: ‘insufficient_quota’, ‘param’: None, ‘code’: ‘insufficient_quota’}}
Need to copy paste the error as only 1 attachment for new users.

Im just trying to make a test and i receive this error message, but Its the first time im triying is not possible that I exceeded the quota, any suggestions?
Its obvious that im new at this so any information will be well received.

Thank you.

Hey @atenea.officialopen - welcome to the Forum.

Have you added any funds to your developer account? If not, add a minimum of $5 to get started using the API.

Thanks for the welcome,

No funds were added but my api request value on the openai dashboard is on 0, never made a request, should this count be on 1 despite receiving the error message?

Thanks for the info. You do need to have a minimum of $5 in your account. You can add it here: https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/billing/overview. This should fix the issue.

Thanks for the quick response, I will try that,

im sorry for this but I need to ask if from the dashboard I can create a chatbot importing an existing model without the need of code in python, are the options of the dashboard something like ai assistants for creating ai?

Im so sorry for the newbie questions I just need to understand how things work. I promise im not asking more questions till tomorrow :slight_smile:

Thanks.

There’s a couple of things you can do in that section.

One involves the creation of Assistants. You can get started with creating and testing Assistants there without having to manually add any code. In most cases, users want to embed their Assistants into their website or an application or want to add more complex features. This would then require code. But for just getting a feel of the technology, this is a good starting point. See here for the documentation on Assistants: https://platform.openai.com/docs/assistants/overview

Alternatively, you can also switch over to the Playground and just test some of the regular models there.
