I am writing to seek assistance with an issue I encountered while using the Guardian API very first time. When making requests with my API key, I consistently receive the following error message: "{'message': 'Duplicate API key found'}".

Hi,

Does the error look like what you see if you follow this link? If so, then I think the issue may be that when you’ve attempted to use the API, you’ve passed two api-key parameters in the URL, in which case removing one of them should fix it.

Best wishes,
Emily
