Check you .env, the key needs to be right after the "=".

If you're not on the pay as you go pricing plan for the API key on you OpenAI account you will keep getting this error. Leaving the free credit tier is how I fixed this.

Edit: let me know if this fixed your problem as well.

To clarify what @joshduplaa said, there is a difference between platform.openai.com and chat.openai.com, including billing.

Both tools manage billing separately. Make sure that you are on platform.openai.com's paid plan.

It is: OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-x7Dq6JMVodyPuT(...)

I have eventually resolved the problem. The .env file I use is an edited copy of .env.template. In the original template, however, the OPENAI_API_KEY is listed twice, once commented and once uncommented. I edited the first appearance and removed the ### but didn't notice the second appearance. Apparently, after reading the correct api key, the system also reads the second one - incorrect, namely, non-existing - and reports wrong api key.

Interesting find

Noted that in my tracker: Gist | Alt. Thanks for that @skabaw!
