Common Misconceptions

1. I clearly have a large balance, but why does it say my token is unusable?

Please check the following two points:

Token limit: The token may have a limit set. You need to remove the limit before you can use it.

Account balance: The account balance is independent of the token limit. The token must be set with an unlimited limit to function properly.

The most common cause is an incorrect Base URL setting.

Solution:

Change the Base URL to: https://api.elkapi.com.

A single key has no RPM/TPM limits:

Theoretical concurrency:

TPM up to 50 million.

RPM up to 30,000.

Global node load balancing: Ensures optimal call processing and minimal latency.

Concurrency limits for multiple keys: Same as for a single key; they do not stack.

No grouping restrictions: No VIP node grouping restrictions. Extremely high concurrency calls are welcome!

There are no limits. TheedgeAPI supports extremely high concurrency, with absolutely no limit.

Enter the Token Name.

Click the "Set to Unlimited" button.

Select the corresponding option in the Token Group field. Each group supports production-grade calls.

The most common reason is that the base URL has not been modified.

Using the official OpenAI base URL by default can cause this issue.

Solution: Change the base URL to https://api.elkapi.com/v1.

Convert the local image to base64 format.

Call the API for analysis.
