Troubleshooting

TypingMind says authentication failed. Why?

The header value must be "Bearer " (with a space) followed by your full key.

Common errors

  • 401: the key is wrong or incomplete. Paste the whole key.
  • 403: follow a provider of the model, or confirm your email.
  • 404: the model ID or URL is wrong.
  • 429: daily limit reached, or too many requests at once.
