Hello, I'm trying to link the mvt links  from documentation to QGIS without any effect. Does anyone have a similar issue?

Hello,

create a vector layer in qgis. Url is https://api.tiles.openaip.net/api/data/openaip/{z}/{x}/{y}.pbf?apiKey=MY_API_KEY_HERE . Zoom limits are min=4, max=20. This works for me. Cheers!

Thank you, it works now, I have another question, is there a style for this layer?

No. Vector layers do not have a style by default. Depending on your used rendering tools, you have to define them yourself. However, if you use mapbox you can recycle our map style and adjust to your needs. Please note that this requires profound skills in styling with the mapbox GL specificiation and may also require additional infrastructure to make the style look like it is on openaip.
