Troubleshooting & FAQ
I forgot my API key, can you help find it?
Mobaro staff is unable to recover or see created API keys. You need to delete the associated key and create a new one.
Why is my key is giving me 401 errors?
An API key's access relies on the user that created it. For example, if you are trying to POST a User, but the user who created the key cannot CREATE Users, you will encounter a 401 Unauthorized error from the API return.
