FAQPage Schema

How do I configure QianWen API keys for environment variable access?▼

To configure QianWen API keys, set the DASHSCOPE_API_KEY or QIANWEN_API_KEY alias in your system environment variables or .env file. This establishes secure credentials for accessing QianWen services across development and production environments.

Why does my QianWen API request return a 401 Unauthorized error?▼

A 401 Unauthorized error occurs when QianWen API credentials are missing, invalid, or mismatched. You can troubleshoot this by verifying your DASHSCOPE_API_KEY environment variable and running a curl probe to validate the authentication configuration.

What is the best way to verify QianWen API authentication after setup?▼

The best way to verify QianWen API authentication is by executing a curl-based validation probe. This sends a test request to the QianWen services, confirming your API keys are active and correctly configured in the environment.

Can I use a .env file to manage QianWen API keys for local development?▼

Yes, you can use a .env file to manage QianWen API keys for local development. The setup supports optional .env integration, allowing you to load the DASHSCOPE_API_KEY or QIANWEN_API_KEY alias directly into your environment variables.

How do I troubleshoot credential mismatches across development and production environments?▼

To troubleshoot credential mismatches across development and production environments, verify the DASHSCOPE_API_KEY in each specific environment. Use the guided workflow to check for configuration mismatches and record curl verification evidence for audits.
