Just checking that the full error message has the complete url? https://api.openai.com/

It could be your IT blocking the site, can you load it up in a web browser?

Thanks for your help. I can access the web site: it comes back with some JSON text. I probably should have mentioned right away that the error message also included: "You exceeded your current quota, please check your plan and billing details." And it include the type: "insufficient_quota".

In sum, the site is not blocked. But why would I need quota rights or a billing plan when using an FME transformer?

Thanks,

Gido

With the transformer you need to specify an API Key. That ties usage back to your account. What that message is saying is that the OpenAI account you have (i'm assuming a free tier) has exceed the free limit and you will need to upgrade your plan to keep using it

I had specified an API key. When I looked at my OpenAI account (https://platform.openai.com/account/billing/overview), I saw that it said:

Billing overview

Free trial

Credit remaining

$0.00

......

Does that mean that I cannot use the transformer with my free trial version? Or alternatively would need to pay for credits before I could use it?

Thanks,

Thanks again for your responses. I looked a little deeper into my Chat GPT account. Yes, your are right: I would need to upgrade my plan to use it with FME.

Again, thanks for your help,
