Made that key today, and got the same error too. Figured something was broken, so I stopped fiddling with it. I'll poke it again when things are supposedly working again, because now it won't authenticate it anyway.. :)

Sorry to hijack this tread, but got problem with auth. I do the FarShiverpeaksAPIKey-.... stuff, put in my pw and save profile , but get stuck on a white page. Doesn't go beyond that. It does when I don't type the FarShiverpeaksAPIKey part, but in that case the website seems not to accept it, saying an error has occurred??


Any way to fix it?? Or am I missing smth?

Hmm i know why it went to a blank page (errors do that) and i also know what the issue is, however in order for this to be a problem, the GW2 api has to send an error back (it was a problem with error handling) so not sure this will fix it for you, however maybe it will now tell you what is wrong :)

Tell me if you make any progress

API Key "FarShiverpeaksAPIKey-......"is invalid, or the GW2 API is currently experiencing issues.

GW2 API Response: {"text":"endpoint requires authentication"}




Left out my APIKey in here, in case someone from another server tries to use it. ^^ But guess it's something on Anet's end?

I think you might have misunderstood the part abort naming the api key

I saw your api Key in the error log and there are two problems

First, do not add FarShiverpeaksAPIKey- in front of your api Key when typing it in on this site

Next, you need to name your api key using FarShiverpeaksAPIKey- plus the random numbers and letters from http://farshiverpeaks.com/index.php?page=privateapikeyname on guildwars2.com when making the key, i see you named yours with your own name
