claude-code - 💡(How to fix) Fix [BUG] Claude API with Claude Code [1 participants]

I’m trying to use the Claude API with Claude Code and also directly via curl, but I keep receiving this error: I tested the same API key directly with curl and received the same error, so it does not seem to be a Claude Code issue.

Error Messages/Logs

TL;DR

The issue is likely due to a discrepancy between the reported credit balance and the actual available credits for API usage, and verifying the billing status and spend limits may resolve the issue.

Guidance

• Check the billing status and spend limits in the Console billing page to ensure they are not blocking API usage.
• Verify that the API key is correctly registered and associated with the correct organization and workspace.
• Investigate if there are any pending or unresolved transactions that may be affecting the available credit balance.
• Consider reaching out to support with the provided Request ID (req_011CaYeQRWEJeRKVdje8DRU4) for further assistance.

Notes

The issue seems to be related to the Anthropic API and billing system, rather than a problem with Claude Code. The fact that the same error occurs when using the API key directly with curl suggests a systemic issue.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Verify billing status and spend limits, and reach out to support if necessary, as the issue is likely related to the billing system rather than a version-specific problem.
