API Key Error.

[george4n]

I provided the api key in the .env file but the following error is thrown.

Error: invalid_request_error: You didn't provide an API key. You need to provide your API key in an Authorization header using Bearer auth (i.e. Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY), or as the password field (with blank username) if you're accessing the API from your browser and are prompted for a username and password. You can obtain an API key from https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys.

If you did change .env.example to .env and provided the OPENAI_API_KEY that should be ok. Can you give more context like

• your OS
• the command you ran

Running into the same issue.

1. Installed browser-agent via cargo install browser-agent
2. I have a .env file in the current folder with my key
3. Running browser-agent --visual visit google

Building the package myself via cargo build and then cargo run did the trick 👍🏻

Yes, this would work because it would take the variable from your .env file when been run as build. If you are running browser-agent as a CLI (after cargo install), it would make sense to add it as an environment variable (i.e OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-blahblah browser-agent dostuff )
