API key missing

Post by jwhitt12 »

I am getting a lot of:
API key missing, please enter the API key from Config->General into your 3rd party program: 127.0.0.1 [Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64; rv:102.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/102.0]

I think its referring to the couchpotato API

how do I stop it?

Thank you...........

This log message tells you something tried to connect to sabnzbd's API, but didn't have the required credential (API key). The request came from the same system that the program is running on, and the user-agent strongly suggests it originated at firefox - most likely an addon or extension installed into that browser.

Thank you for the reply. I really wish it told us more but I will try and check it out. I would think it might be in the addons.

Thanks again!

I had installed a new addon called Sabconnect for firefox. I disconnected it a couple of hours ago and haven seen "API key missing" again. I may have fixed (hopefully).
