When I try running it with my API key it fails. Any advice?

I'm sorry for only coming back to this now, but I am unable to reproduce this. I've tried a few times in the last few months, but it never fails with 401

[cam1170]

Okay I tried it again, with the same result. Steps to reproduce: install the plugin, put my API key in the source configuration menu (worker_threads=3, API Requests per second=1, Maximum # of volumes returned=2), edit book, Download metadata with comicvine being the only source.

The same error occurs with a dummy API key, and when I use the plugin with calibre-debug.

[cam1170]

I fixed it! I opened comicvine.json and there was a space at the end of my API key, deleting that fixed it. Maybe there was an issue with copying it from the website. If you want to avoid this in the future, maybe allow for a space at the end.

Thank you! I was really scratching my head here as I couldn't reproduce the issue. Since API keys don't have spaces, I'll see if I can trim the input string to remove spaces from both ends. Good catch!

[jbbandos]

Added a trim to the input, now the API key will have extraneous whitespace removed.
