hi..i am trying to set up my client's clay account and i was linking the openAI and i got this prompt
This is likely due to OpenAI API plan limitations. Check your OpenAI API usage tier at OpenAI API Usage Limits. For Clay integration, you need: ** 30,000 TPM for ChatGPT columns ** 450,000 TPM for Claygent Free plans or tier 1 won't support these requirements. You'll need to upgrade to a tier 2 API key. To update your API key in Clay: 1. Go to your profile picture → Settings → Connections 2. Find and update your OpenAI connection If you need further assistance, please request human help by clicking "Talk to a person."
what should i tell my client then
You should inform your client that they need to upgrade their OpenAI API key to tier 2 to use Clay's integration. Their current plan doesn't meet the requirements of: ** 30,000 TPM (tokens per minute) for ChatGPT columns ** 450,000 TPM for Claygent They can check their current tier at OpenAI API Usage Limits and follow the upgrade instructions at How to Move Up in Usage Tiers.
Hey, That error means the OpenAI API key you’re using has hit its quota limit—either due to usage caps or billing issues. Here’s what you can tell your client: “We tried connecting your OpenAI API key, but it looks like the key has hit its usage limit. This usually means the current plan has either run out of credits or there’s a billing issue on the OpenAI side. You’ll need to log into your OpenAI account and check the usage and billing settings to resolve it. Once it’s cleared, we can reconnect it in Clay.” Let me know if you want help checking or switching to a different key.
ok thanks! i'll let my client know and ask if i need help after
Hey my client sent me this..its regarding the chatgpt api key..any way to work around it?
Hi Geri, thanks for your message - taking a closer look at this now.
Today, Clay requires 30,000 TPM (tokens per minute) for "ChatGPT - Generate Text" columns and 450,000 TPM for Claygent. "ChatGPT - Generate Text" will work with any tier, as long as the API key has access/can be used. To use Claygent, you will need a Tier 2 API key from OpenAI, as it supports the required TPM rates. You can check your OpenAI API usage or limits following these links: • Usage • Limits • Usage Tiers Their support team can help if you need to increase your usage limits. I believe you can request a review from the “Usage Limits” page in your OpenAI account settings. Just click on “Need help?”, submit your request, and they’ll review and follow up with you. They will typically grant the request if you have already prepaid the minimum amount required.
