Why is my 2012 MacBook Air not charging?

I have a 2012 MacBook Air it has been charging no problem up until recently, it is turning on and I can use it no problem but when I disconnect the MagSafe it turns off, I have a feeling I may need to replace the battery but wondering if by any chance I can use it for a little longer without replacing

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Hi,

Resetting SMC could solve the issue.

If it doesn't help, try to run a utility, called Battery Health which is available at Mac App Store for free to see your battery condition.
