Hi, I'm I'm new to the site and trying to access the "Credits" functionality... When I use the example URL in the initial email I received the request works fine. When I go to the "credits" documentation there is a sample code generator, but when I post my key in the credentials box and hit the "try it" button for the generated code I get an invalid API key error. Generated Code and error included below
Generated Code
import requests
url = "https://api.themoviedb.org/3/credit/credit_id"
headers = {
"accept": "application/json",
"Authorization": "Bearer <API_KEY>"
}
response = requests.get(url, headers=headers)
print(response.text)
ERROR
{
"status_code": 7,
"status_message": "Invalid API key: You must be granted a valid key.",
"success": false
}

The "Try it" part of the documentation doesn't work when it is used with Api_key. You should authenticate with the Access Token instead.
