Common issues

• Key format: Make sure you're using the full key (starts with sf_live_), not the truncated prefix shown in the dashboard
• Authorization header: Must be Authorization: Bearer sf_live_your_key (note the space after "Bearer")
• Key revoked: Check the API Keys list in Settings > Developer. If the key was deleted, create a new one.
• Plan downgraded: API access requires a Pro plan. If you've downgraded, your keys still exist but return 403 errors.

Testing your key

Try a simple GET request:

curl -H "Authorization: Bearer sf_live_your_key" \

A successful response means your key is working. A 401 means the key is invalid or expired.
