Have bronze premium subscription but the User APIs don't work

DickKluis wrote 3 years ago: 1

I am trying to use the user APIs but whatever I do I get the Username or API key is wrong message.

What is the username in TVMaze?  Is it my email or the nick-name.   I tried both BTW and the same result every time.

HELP

@DickKluis The username is your actual username (DickKluis)

The password is the API key found on your dashboard.

You can test it out by going to the premium user API docs, click the 'Authorize' button in the top-right, enter your details and then click the 'Try it out!' button on one of the endpoints.

I did the Authorize and try it out but I get the same error.  

{ "name": "Unauthorized", "message": "Invalid username or API key", "code": 0, "status": 401 }

And to confirm, you're using your API key from your dashboard and not the password that you use to log in to TVmaze?

Yes using the API key 

instead of the password.

Hi @DickKluis

Could you confirm if you got in? If so, what was the blocking issue? Something that was misunderstood?

Yes, I finally got in via the test page.   I am going to try my python script next.   Thank you
