Issues with OpenAI API Rate Limits After Recent Signup

·Mar 04, 2025 03:22 AM·

Hello. I signed up for clay about 5 days ago and added $50 to my open AI API key account. When I run a search and try to run an AI Prompt using Open AI 4omini, it says my "rate limits are insufficient for this field". Do I need to wait 7 days to use? Thanks

The "rate limits are insufficient" error suggests that your OpenAI API key's usage tier doesn't meet the requirements for the AI prompt you're trying to run. This isn't related to a 7-day waiting period. To resolve this, you'll need to upgrade your OpenAI API key to a higher tier. For reliable use of OpenAI in Clay, you need higher token per minute (TPM) limits. You can check your current limits at https://platform.openai.com/account/limits. To upgrade, you'll need to contact OpenAI's support team and request an upgrade to Tier 2 or higher. If you need further assistance with this process, please request human support by clicking on "Talk to a person" in this chat.
