Why do my requests return 401 in production?

401 / invalid-token errors almost always mean credentials are mismatched across environments.

401 / invalid-token errors almost always mean credentials are mismatched across environments.

A blanket 401 means the dev-id and x-api-key pair don't match a valid account. When moving from testing to production:

• Update both headers.

• Ensure both come from the same dashboard account.

• Confirm the production dev-id matches what's under your dashboard API settings.

An invalid-token error on SDK connection means the auth token was generated for a different environment than the dev-id used at SDK init. Generate the token with the same dev-id (e.g. staging) you pass when initialising the SDK.
