The provided value exceeds the allowable limit. Ensure the value is less than or equal to 100.

The 400 Bad Request error in the OpenAI API is typically triggered by several specific issues:

Invalid Request Parameters

The error can occur when the request parameters are not properly configured or violate the API's constraints. For example, if the limit value in your query exceeds the maximum allowed limit (in this case, 100), the API will return a 400 error due to a validation failure.

Incorrect API Keys or Configuration

An incorrect, expired, or mismatched API key can lead to a 400 error, as the server cannot validate the request.

Rate Limiting and Throttling

Exceeding the rate limits imposed by OpenAI can result in a 400 error. This happens when the number of requests made within a given time frame exceeds the allowed limit.

Token Limits and Input/Output Considerations

For chat completions or other models, the max_tokens parameter must be correctly set, considering both input and output tokens to avoid exceeding the model's limits.

Syntax and Data Issues

The error can also be caused by invalid syntax or data in the request, such as extra characters, incorrect formatting, or missing required fields.

In your specific case, the error message indicates a validation error for the limit parameter, suggesting that the value provided exceeds the maximum allowed limit of 100.
