Understanding OpenAI API Rate Limits and Budget Management
Does someone know what the rate limit should be for an OpenAI API key to work? I have 10$ in credits and deleted the budget limit. How can I make this work?
For reliable use of OpenAI in Clay, you need specific tokens per minute (TPM) rates. ChatGPT columns require 30,000 TPM, while Claygent needs 450,000 TPM. With $10 in credits and no budget limit, you should check your current usage tier at https://platform.openai.com/settings/organization/limits. If you're on a free plan or tier 1, it won't meet these requirements. You may need to upgrade to a higher tier for better performance.

Is that what you were looking for?
David··So I have to spend 50$ and have to wait at least 7 days? Is there no way that I can use the API key straight away?
Unfortunately, there's no immediate way to use your OpenAI API key in Clay without meeting OpenAI's usage requirements. However, you have two options: 1. Use Clay's OpenAI API key: It's faster but slightly more expensive (about 1 cent per call vs 0.003 cents). 2. Use your own API key: If you want to use your own key, you'll need to meet OpenAI's usage requirements first. You can add your own API key in Clay's workspace settings once it meets the requirements. If you need more assistance, please request human support in this conversation.
