Hi folks,

A quick note to say that we are aware of an issue impacting our API credential validation that is intermittently limiting the use of our API offerings. We are currently investigating and will update the community once we know more or have been able to resolve the underlying issue.

Apologies for any inconveniences this may be causing,

-the OpenAlex team

A quick follow-up that we identified the issue and deployed a fix a few hours ago. After some testing, it seems the problem is resolved but please let me know if you are still experiencing this issue.

Thank you to those who wrote to us letting us know and to everyone for your patience,
