Errors · authentication_error
HTTP 401 · type authentication_error
Missing or invalid API key.
When it fires
The Authorization header is missing, malformed, or the key doesn't exist (revoked, deleted, or never issued).
Recovery
Double-check the key. Test keys (sk_test_) only work against api-sandbox; live keys (sk_live_) against api.chronapilot.com.
