API Authentication error - no API key provided

Hello,

I am sorry if this has already been discussed, but I couldnt find anything.

I am trying to authenticate and connect through the API, but I am receiving the following error:

Output exceeds the size limit. Open the full output data in a text editor

Hi @bujarib

Please edit your post to include the code on proper markdown.

Let me know once you have done so.

Hi @sps

Please let me know if you can access this link: Online HTML Editor - html

Thanks

You need to urgently change your API key. You have posted it in the URL for the online editor

If you don’t, other people will use your key and you will be billed

Thanks Raymonddavey,

It is a revoked key.

No problems - just pointing it out in case you were unaware. Keys are sometimes posted by users without them realizing
