Hi everyone, I don’t know if others are facing the same problem. When I try to live test one of my apps ( even old ones) and I try to log in I get the message that API keys are invalid even if I didn’t touch anything both from the Firebase and Thunkable side. ![Screenshot 2020-06-23 at 08.51.42](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex015/uploads/thunkable/original/3X/c/c/ccf001fa13180512dd233b0d5483f05b4449be71.png) Any clues on what could be causing this ? ---

Hi @wikilinks.infooleua0! Are you still experiencing this issue? was this a project copied from another project by any chance? ---

Hey dom, yes I’m still experiencing these problems. yes it was, but i mean it was copied only as a back up.( and i never had this problem before even if I usually made a backup every day) moreover all my apps are working on the same firebase database ---

Just wondering if the API keys were removed when to project was copied? Since it was a copy of your own project that seems unlikely. ---

I’ve also tried to remove them and re insert them but the problem is still there. The problem occurs only while Live testing on PC ( tried both from mac and windows), the web app and the built app work just fine. ---

same issue here - any solution yet? Happened for me first after I opened a public app, copied a page from it and then inserted it into my app. Now I get the API error when I sign in, trying to live test from any file from PC. I even set up a new Realtime database with new API, etc. and linked it, but it didn’t help. It does work in the Thunkable Live app, but I hate using that because it’s so glitchy and writes data to the database in an undependable way. ---
