am I doing something wrong or there is a

can you share some snippet o f your code?

from llama_index import VectorStoreIndex, SimpleDirectoryReader

documents = SimpleDirectoryReader('data').load_data()
index = VectorStoreIndex.from_documents(documents)

Do you have a paid openai account, or just the free trial?

The trial is severly rate limited -- it's almost unusable

free trial

but I can pass the same amount of text to chatGPT as prompt

and it works

Right -- but llama-index is making more than one call in quick succession

hence the rate limit errors (likely with embeddings I'm guessing)

Thanks, apparently my credits had expired. added some $ and it is working now.

nice!
