Adding API Key from Big Commerce Store

Question

I am trying to add an api key from my bigcommerce store to my developer account. I go in and add a user that has access to api, and this generates a key, and I click save. I then registered as developer at developer.bigcommerce.com and tried to add the key, but it gave me an invalid credentials message. What am I doing wrong?

I tried recreating this and it seems to be working fine. Did you make sure you added the store url too for the new api key.

Look at the attached screenshot. enter image description here

Assuming you've inputed the user name and key correctly, you also want to be sure the store url matches the API URL given when you created the new user BUT without the /api/v2 at the end.

So if your API URL happened to be https://store-bwvr466.mybigcommerce.com/api/v2

Just input https://store-bwvr466.mybigcommerce.com for the store url
