0 Credits Error

[ts.cmn]

Hi

I encountered the following error, when i using nim

due to exception [401] Unauthorized
RequestID: 43264dbd-272389
Please check or regenerate your API key.

But I got the “NVAIE_Licensing” for 1 year.

Currently my NIM account shows “0 credits”

Hi @ts.cmn, were you able to use the API previously? It’s possible that you have run out of credits – even with the enterprise license, build.nvidia.com only offers a limited number of credits.

Hi, Thanks for your reply.

I able to use the NIM API previously. An error suddenly occurred.
How can I use or take more credits?

The NVIDIA API catalog is a trial experience of NVIDIA NIM limited to 5000 free API credits. Upon sign-up, users are granted 1000 API credits. To obtain more, click on your profile from within the API catalog → ‘Request More’. If you signed up to use the API catalog with a personal email address, you will be asked to provide a business email to activate a free 90-day NVIDIA AI Enterprise license and unlock additional 4000 credits. To continue using NIM after you’ve used up your credits, you have these options:

1. Self-host the API on your cloud provider or on-prem. Research and test use is free under the ‘NVIDIA Developer Program’ access . Please note that your organization must have an NVIDIA AI Enterprise license for production use.
2. Use serverless NIM API on Hugging Face with per-pay-use pricing. The NVIDIA AI Enterprise license is included with this option so you don’t need a separate license.
