try to use Emby administrator api(shows in swagger), not generated api(shows in Emby api key page). I think this api needs a user like an administrator but generated api is not a user for this system. I tried so many apis, it really works if you change to administrator api(shows in swagger).

I'll give it a shot with the next viewing. May not necessarily be a solution in the classical sense but I'll accept it as a workaround, especially since I'm the only user of this server anyway.

Thanks!

Yup, that worked a treat! Swagger/Admin API key it is from here on in! Thanks @clost!!

Hi, we'll take a look at it. Thanks.

@LukeAPI key generate at dashboard will trigger this error, API key create by user login will work well.

This problem is still not fixed, how can i use the API, and if it is only working with swagger API Key, how do i get or find the Swagger API Key.

Had this workin for me on the BETA Server but the same script is not working for me on the stable server where i am now.

Seems to be at the bottom of the dev's list of priorities. I'm still using the Swagger admin API key.

To find the key, navigate to Settings -> Dashboard. At the bottom of the Dashboard page (not the menu bar), you will find a link "API". That link contains the API key that Swagger uses. Copy and paste.
