    A 401 "Unauthorized" error typically indicates an issue with your API key authentication. Here's how to resolve it: 1. Check your API key: • Go to Settings > Your profile > API key to find your Clay API key • Make sure you're using the correct API key format: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY in the Authorization header 2. If you're certain the API key is correct but still experiencing issues: • Verify that the API key is properly connected in your integration settings • Check under Settings > Connections and look for the Clay connectionIf these steps don't resolve the issue, you may need to regenerate your API key from the Settings > Your profile > API key section.
