Wrong message: Invalid API Key

[gsierroqx]

Describe the bug

I am working with Avalanche testnet and trying to verify smart contracts however the answer that I am getting is: "Invalid API Key". I run the verification once again using --debug. Snowtrace is responding with the provided apikey to the HTTP requests so I guess the apikey is not the problem.

Steps To Reproduce

My last attempt was using metacoin example from truffle, same steps described by Avalanche documentation:

https://docs.avax.network/dapps/smart-contracts/verify-smart-contracts-with-truffle-verify/

Environment information

• Operating System: Ubuntu 21.04
• Node version: 16.13.2
• Truffle version: 5.5.13
• truffle-plugin-verify version: 0.5.25

truffle-config.js content:

const HDWalletProvider = require("@truffle/hdwallet-provider"); const { apikey, mnemonic } = require("./.env.json");

module.exports = { plugins: [ 'truffle-plugin-verify' ], api_keys: { snowtrace: apikey }, networks: { fuji: { provider: () => new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, https://api.avax-test.network/ext/bc/C/rpc), network_id: 43113, timeoutBlocks: 200, confirmations: 5 } } };

Thanks for your help!

I'm faced the same issue. I would appreciate someone helping to point it out.

[minimoz]

Exactly the same issue on my end.

[rkalis]

The plugin relays the error message returned from the Snowtrace API, so it is being reported as being an invalid API key. @Enigmatic331, do you know if there are any known issues with Snowtrace API keys?

[minimoz]

Anyone has solved this yet? I confirm that my Snowtrace API key works with the cURL command

[0xV4L3NT1N3]

gm all, just dropping in here to mention I gave it a try with truffle verify 0.5.25 which didn't output any errors or invalid keys for me.

@gsierroqx can your API Key be used to call any other endpoints from SnowTrace's docs ?

[gsierroqx]

Yes, see bellow: https://api-testnet.snowtrace.io/api?module=account&action=balance&address=0x9BD63e687a5390D5dEA6ca750B83EaaBc74C8622&tag=latest&apikey=XXXX

{ "status": "1", "message": "OK", "result": "1969088475000000000" }

[minimoz]

Problem was solved for me too, didn't change anything in my config.

I use "truffle-plugin-verify": "^0.5.25".

Thank you 🙏

[rkalis]

Does using 0.5.25 fix the issue for everyone? Then I'll have to figure out what happened in the latest version that broke things.
