Very confusing documentation

I am confused about OpenAI usage.

I just created API key and make a example simple call to see if I can get a roundtrip going. I immediately get:

Error code: 429 - {‘error’: {‘message’: 'You exceeded your current quota,

Anyone know an answer to this? Should I have to pay and buy credits to make calls?

Welcome to the Forum!

This error message indicates that you do not have sufficient funds on your developer account. In order to start using the API you need to add a minimum balance of USD 5.

Hope this helps. Happy building!

Spamming this forum with your hate is a bad look. If you don’t understand something then simply ask that. You are clearly confused. Read the documentation, read the website, maybe just try a little harder before blaming openAI, which in large part is why there is an “AI community”
