API endpoint error 403

,

Dear NVIDIA Team,

I am a personal developer currently using the NVIDIA NIM API for learning and personal development. However, when attempting to call the API endpoint (https://integrate.api.nvidia.com/v1/chat/completions), I consistently encounter a 403 Forbidden error, even though my API key status shows as ACTIVE .

From reviewing the community discussions, I believe the issue is that my Personal Organization currently lacks the necessary “Public API Endpoints” permission .

My account details are as follows:

  • Registered Email: coulstockfred@gmail.com

  • API Key Prefix: nvapi-AWRq

  • Organization: Personal

  • Account Type: Personal / Free Tier

I confirm that this request is solely for personal learning and testing purposes, and I will strictly adhere to NVIDIA’s terms of use and rate limit policies.

I would be grateful if you could enable this permission for my account.

Thank you for your time and support.
