Hello, the error seems like a standard message for authentication failure, which could be due to several possible issues:

  1. Incorrect Account/Zone ID: Double-check that the IDs are correct.
  2. API Token Issues: Ensure that the token has the correct permissions for the intended actions.
  3. Missing X-Auth-Email Header: If using the X-Auth-Key header, make sure X-Auth-Email is included.
  4. Insufficient Privileges: Verify that your token has adequate privileges for the action.

I recommend testing with a direct API call (e.g., using curl or Postman) to confirm that your credentials are set up properly.
