The app returned "An invalid api_key was supplied. Error

Hi, I’m trying to connect Price labs with webhooks but I keep getting an error message:

Failed to create a request in Webhooks by Zapier

The app returned "An invalid api_key was supplied.

when I’m using the url:

https://api.pricelabs.co/v1/neighborhood_data?

 

Params:

pms=vrm
listing_id=SUNSETPROPS_OLSE___239
 
I’m using basic auth: Username|API Key
Headers: X-API-Key = API_KEY_FROM_DASHBOARD
 
And when using it with url: pricelabs.co/pricing it’s successfully connected and pulling data but incorrect.

Remove the trailing ?

 

For API Authorization generally you use one or the other, Basic Auth OR Headers, but not both.

 

The API docs show this.

You need to remove the Basic Auth.

You need to add the API Key to the Header in place of “API_KEY_FROM_DASHBOARD”.

Hi @Vincii 

Good question.

Already tried it X-API-Key = (API Key) but it didn’t work because I’ve put an API key as well in basic auth.

Thanks for the help, it’s working now.
