Persistent "API Key is malformed or failed to parse" Error with New Keys (v1 API)

Hi NFT.storage Team,

I'm encountering a persistent "API Key is malformed or failed to parse" error when trying to use your service.

This issue occurs even when I:

Generate brand new API keys directly from my account dashboard. Use these new keys with the nft.storage JavaScript client library (version 7.2.0) in my Next.js application. Attempt direct API calls to the v1 HTTP API (e.g., https://api.nft.storage/upload) using curl with these new keys. The curl command also returns an authentication error indicating a malformed key. I understand these API keys are intended for the v1 API as per your documentation (https://app.nft.storage/v1/docs/client/http-api).

Could you please help me understand why newly generated keys for the v1 API are consistently failing authentication and being reported as malformed?

Thank you for your assistance.
