The provided value exceeds the allowable limit. Ensure the value is less than or equal to 100.
This error has been identified and solved.
Reason
The OpenAI API Error: AxiosError: Request failed with status code 400
typically indicates a "Bad Request," which can be caused by several factors. Here are some common reasons for this error:
Invalid API Keys
An incorrect, expired, or mismatched API key can trigger this error. Ensure that the API key used in your code matches the one listed in the OpenAI Developer Dashboard and that it has not expired.
Incorrect Request Syntax or Configuration
The request may contain invalid syntax or configuration, such as missing or incorrect headers, or an improperly formatted data payload.
Rate Limiting and Throttling
Exceeding the rate limits set by OpenAI can result in a 400 error. Make sure to check the rate limiting documentation and implement measures to avoid hitting the API too frequently.
Invalid Input Data
The input data may not conform to the expected format. For example, extra whitespace or newline characters at the beginning or end of the text can cause validation errors.
Validation Errors
Validation errors can occur if the request does not meet the API's requirements. For instance, if a parameter exceeds the allowed limit (e.g.,
limit
value greater than 100), it will result in a validation error.
Server-Side Issues
Sometimes, the issue might be on OpenAI's server side, such as changes in token counting or other internal adjustments.
Incorrect Payload Structure
Ensuring that the payload structure matches the API's expectations is crucial. For example, missing required keys like
role
andcontent
in fine-tuning data can cause validation errors.
Understanding these potential causes can help you identify and troubleshoot the specific issue leading to the 400 error in your OpenAI API requests.
Solution
To fix the OpenAI API Error: AxiosError: Request failed with status code 400
due to the provided value exceeding the allowable limit, you should focus on the following steps:
Check and Adjust the Request Parameters: Ensure that the values passed in your request do not exceed the limits specified by the OpenAI API.
Verify API Key and Configuration: Confirm that your API key is correct, not expired, and properly configured in your code.
Inspect Request Syntax and Payload: Make sure the request syntax, headers, and data payload are correctly formatted and conform to the API's expectations.
Adhere to Rate Limits: Ensure you are not exceeding the rate limits set by OpenAI to avoid throttling issues.
Clean Input Data: Remove any extra whitespace or newline characters from the input data to prevent validation errors.
By addressing these areas, you can resolve the 400 error and ensure your API requests are processed correctly.
