Hi @Jerryl ,

Just looking at the screenshot, it looks like you might need to replace your API URL on that screen with an API key.

To generate a new API key, you simply:

  • Go into your user account in Omeka Classic
  • Navigate to the API Keys tab within your user account
  • Create a new key by giving it a label and submitting the form

Just to clarify, you don’t need a key unless you’re trying to get nonpublic data from the source site.

But having the URL in there will definitely be a problem. This looks like your browser maybe incorrectly auto-filled the URL into that box?

Thank you both for the responses. It seems I might have conflated the API URL endpoint and API keys as the same value. It works now.
