Hi Vercel team,
We seem to be running into the same kind of AI Gateway 403 issue discussed in the earlier community thread: Resolving 403 Forbidden error for Vercel AI Gateway API keys
Our setup is using the OpenAI-compatible AI Gateway endpoint: https://ai-gateway.vercel.sh/v1
Requests are sent with an AI Gateway API key via Authorization: Bearer [key], and the model is routed as xai/grok-4.3.
The request is rejected with 403 Forbidden / access_denied. From the earlier thread, it sounded like some cases were caused by account/team entitlement or billing/card validation issues that had to be fixed internally by Vercel.
The project/account identifier is storypalse-7526.
Could someone from Vercel check whether this project/account has the same AI Gateway entitlement or billing validation issue? I can provide any additional team/account details privately if needed.
Thanks!
