For me it works without issues. Can you share what you entered, your config, platform and the version? Just replace the actual api key with "API_KEY_HERE" or something like that.

give me two min first time using github sorry ^^

[Sakumaid111]

I think that's what you wanted and sorry if i'm taking your time for nothing probably, never used something like that ^^

is that your actual api key in the image or a placeholder?

[Sakumaid111]

yep it is i got it in "account" > "Manage API Access" i think that's where i'm supposed to take it

and i hope it's not bad to show it to everybody o_o

I have edited the comment to remove the api key with the image. Avoid sending the actual api keys to other people or publicly on the internet next time please. The mistake was that you put the api key in both fields. top is username and bottom for the actual key. Additionally please revoke your current api key and generate a new one.

Just replace the actual api key with "API_KEY_HERE" or something like that.

That's why i also wrote this when asking for the config picture.

No problem mistakes happen and luckily we fixed it instantly. With the api key depending on the platform it can access all your data and even control your account. This can range from simple liking images to deleting the account in some cases so always keep it private and secure.

[Official-Husko]

here is an example on how the config should look if you did it all correctly:

            "e621": {
                  "apiUser": "YOUR_E621_USERNAME_HERE",
                  "apiKey": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
            },

So in my case for example:

            "e621": {
                  "apiUser": "Official Husko",
                  "apiKey": "asidhasiudghasiudhgasasdadasdassadsad"
            },
