Hi, I have a free trial and I am still unable to make a single API request yet, screenshots are attached for reference. My question is if I can use API without making a credit payment or not, I have entered the billing information already.
Welcome to the Forum @zaidvirk49!
OpenAI no longer grants free credits - the program was discontinued earlier this year. Even if you were granted free credits in the past, these likely have expired by now.
In order to start using the API, you need to a add a minimum of $5 to your developer account.
Let us know if you have any further questions regarding this.

Maybe OpenAI could update their interface to make this clear.
I just wspent an hour trying to access my “free trial” through the API.
