First, double-check that you've correctly entered your API key in the Postman request header (usually 'X-API-Key' or similar). Ensure there are no typos or extra spaces. Also, verify that the API key has the necessary permissions to access the requested resource. If the key is valid, try regenerating it and updating Postman.
