OpenAI Node in n8n shows 'Insufficient quota detected' even with new accounts

Hi everyone,

I’m having an issue when trying to use the OpenAI node in n8n. Every time I try to test the node, I get the following error: “Insufficient quota detected”.

I’ve tried with three different OpenAI accounts, including two that hadn’t made any prompt requests at all that day, and I still get the same message.

All accounts have valid API keys, and I’ve double-checked the setup. None of them are linked to ChatGPT Plus, but I believe that shouldn’t be necessary for using the API, right?

Any ideas on what might be causing this or how to resolve it?

Thanks in advance!

Hi
Have you tried a few simple checks like below? Are there operations left in your openAI account for that org? Also do a simple curl request to remove any key issues from mix. Ex. curl https://api.openai.com/v1/models
-H “Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY_HERE”
If this is not returning, your key might be incorrect. If this is working, then might not be configured correctly in N8N AI node. let me know if this helps or if there’s any errorr log you can get.

Cheers,
P
