Hi @John_Smith

As a general rule, we don’t provide support for other products not made by Roboflow.

That being said, it does sound like you have the incorrect API key.

It looks like you’re already using Roboflow for your dataset. An alternative could be using [Roboflow Train to train with one click](https://docs.roboflow.com/train/train), or using [one of our many notebooks](https://github.com/roboflow/notebooks). Those are uses that we would definitely support here on the forum.
