Maybe it's not a TMDb error response.
See the list of TMDb server error warnings here.
https://www.themoviedb.org/documentation/api/status-codes
In your case:

Code    HTTP    Message  
3       401     Authentication failed: You do not have permissions to access the service.
7       401     Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.
10      401     Suspended API key: Access to your account has been suspended, contact TMDb.
14      401     Authentication failed.
16      401     Device denied.
17      401     Session denied.
30      401     Invalid username and/or password: You did not provide a valid login.
31      401     Account disabled: Your account is no longer active. Contact TMDb if this is an error.
32      401     Email not verified: Your email address has not been verified.
33      401     Invalid request token: The request token is either expired or invalid.
34      401     The resource you requested could not be found.
35      401     Invalid token.
36      401     This token hasn't been granted write permission by the user.
38      401     You don't have permission to edit this resource.
39      401     This resource is private.  

Can you let us know which of these error responses you received?

it's give me either (Status code: 401) only or (Status code: 401 internal redirect)
here is the whole response
Request URL: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/discover/tv?api_key=MY_API_KEY&with_networks=213
Request Method: GET
Status Code: 401 Internal Redirect

This API Request of yours is working smoothly for me.

I believe that whoever is sending this error response is not the TMDb server.
It must probably be your installed Netlify.
So you should ask for help on their website.

hey i try to Authenticate my api_key but it is showing error 401 "status_code": 7, "status_message": "Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.", "success": false

Hi @ritkg_05, in order to get help you need to supply more information. What is the exact api URL you are trying to use that gives the error message. Replace your api key with a string like "xxxxxx".

The link i am using is https://api.themoviedb.org/3/genre/movie/list?api_key=THE_KEY

I tested your URL in my Firefox browser on my Win11 note and it worked correctly.
Have you tried opening this URL in a new window or tab on your browser?
Preferably do not use a mobile device. Support is not good for them.
And answer here if it worked or didn't work correctly.

PS: I exchanged your API Key for THE_KEY

it's give me either (Status code: 401) here is the whole response Request URL:
https://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/11?api_key=1097bff1d2323aa07c0086a420ba61d7
{ "status_code": 7, "status_message": "Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.", "success": false }
