Hi.
Help me please, understand why I can't make request using Amplitude API with my key and secret?
I've tried use Postman and examples on Python from official docs, but all times I've got a 403 Forbidden or 401 Unanthorized.
Why? The key and secret is 100% correct. Maybe it's due some scopes \ permissions ?
Screenshot: https://prnt.sc/1s9npb7
Result: <html><title>403: Forbidden</title><body>403: Forbidden</body></html>

Documentation indicates that hours should also use two numbers. Would using T00 instead of T0 help?
If not, what kind of request you get for the sample CURL request?
curl -u API_Key:Secret_Key 'https://amplitude.com/api/2/export?start=20210914T5&end=20210914T20' >> yourfilename.zip

Hey
Thank you so much for your feedback.
I’ve not find out what’s the reason of the troubles with my credentials on this route: https://amplitude.com/api/2/dsar/requests
But I’ve found a workaround: just use the NodeJs module and activity() method to get data about the user’s activity. And it’s working with the same api key and secret.
Thanks again for your support!

Thank you for sharing that you were trying to export data from the DSAR API. The DSAR API uses an org-level API key and secret key instead of a project-level API key. To request an org-level API key, you would have needed to submit a ticket to the support team at support.amplitude.com. https://www.docs.developers.amplitude.com/analytics/apis/ccpa-dsar-api/#authorization

Hi Belinda, is this still true? I can’t get the DSAR API to work with my project credentials (other paths work fine), and don’t understand how I can request org-level API keys on a Starter plan
