How to Warm Up Your OpenAI API Key for ChatGPT Use

Hi, I am trying to use my OpenAI API key to run ChatGPT 4o search columns but it is saying that my rate limit is too low. I understand that to be able to use my API key I need to warm it up by using it, but I am unable to use it for the lowest possible ChatGPT integration within Clay. How else can I warm up my API key or get it to a point where I can use it? Any help is appreciated. Cheers.

For reliable use of OpenAI in Clay, you need an API key with at least 30,000 TPM (tokens per minute) for ChatGPT columns. You can check your current API usage tier at https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits.To upgrade your usage tier, you'll need to move up to a tier 2 API key. You can find detailed information about your current usage, limits, and pricing at these OpenAI links: ** Usage: https://platform.openai.com/account/usage ** Limits: https://platform.openai.com/account/limits * Usage Tiers: https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/rate-limits/usage-tiers

How can I move up to a tier 2 api key? I thought I can only do that by using it more.

You can check your current API usage tier and find information about upgrading at OpenAI's website. Here are the key steps: 1. Check your current usage tier at: https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits 2.

Hey there, thanks for reaching out! ☺️ To upgrade to a Tier 2 API key with OpenAI, you need to first trigger an automatic upgrade to Tier 1 by paying $5 towards your OpenAI API usage account. After that, make an additional payment of $50 toward this usage-based plan, which will then automatically upgrade you to Tier 2. This process is based on payments rather than usage volume, so you don't need to increase your usage to move up tiers. Here are the links to check your OpenAI API usage or limits: * Usage * Limits If there's anything else I can assist you with, please let me know! 😊 Have a great Wednesday, Daniel

Hey Daniel K. I recently upgraded to Tier2 but in Clay it still stands that my rate limits are insufficient. Do I need to provide new key or it simply takes time for upgrade to be effective? Thank you

Hi Tom, this question pertains to the OpenAI key. So we will not be as helpful in answering this question. I suggest reaching out to the OpenAI support and ask them this questions as we do not determine the rate limits for different OpenAI keys. Sorry I could not help you this time but feel free to ask any more Clay-related questions you might have!

Hi Stefano, Daniel's comment above fixed it. Just needed to deposit some more cash into OpenAI and it started working.
