There could be a few reasons for this issue. It's likely related to how the API response is being parsed or how the data is being formatted in your request. Here are some steps to troubleshoot: 1. Check your Body section for common errors: • Ensure keys are surrounded by double quotes • Check for correct punctuation and syntax • Look for hidden characters 2. Verify the "Field Paths to Return" setting: • If used, ensure it's correctly specifying the data you need 3. Review your JSON formatting: • Strings should be in quotes, numbers and booleans shouldn't • For dynamic variables, follow JSON rules To help further, could you please copy and paste your JSON into the chat? This will allow us to identify any specific formatting issues.

Hey Pablo, I fixed the issue by adding the missing quotation mark, but it looks like the API key is still missing. Can you add that in so the call can go through? Let me know once it’s updated.
