Please help… My personal account is listed under our teams subscription as the owner but when I login to my personal account to create a new api key it shows that I have a free account and it wants me to upgrade to a paid account.

Welcome to the dev community!
You’re not alone in your confusion. A lot of people assume that chat.openai.com and platform.openai.com are somehow connected.
but they’re not. for the api (platform.openai.com) you get charged for usage, and pay for tokens in and out. There’s a tier system, but it only limits how many requests you can fire off every minute (rate limits). There isn’t a monthly subscription as such.
So your prepaid teams subscription account on chat.openai.com has absolutely no bearing on the platform.
