Common problems
- 401, "missing or invalid API key". Send the key as
Authorization: Bearer pw_live_.... Over MCP, your client can list the tools without a key, but calling one needs it. - 402, "top up". The key's balance doesn't cover the call. Buy credit in the pricing section with the same email, and it adds to the same key.
- A
job_idinstead of a result. The call takes longer than about 100 seconds. Fetch it withGET /v1/jobs/<job_id>or theget_job_resulttool every 20 to 30 seconds. - Research declined a question. It declines questions about private people: addresses, contact details, relatives, profiles. Declined questions cost nothing.
- A file we couldn't read. The link has to be public and point at the file itself, not a page that plays it. Failed downloads cost nothing.
- A lost key. We store keys only in hashed form, so we can't show one again. Email us from the address you bought with, and we'll rotate it.
