Hello johntejik,

The `view only` you are seeing on the API Key details page is intended to indicate that the permissions of the key can not be modified once the key is created.

In that screenshot we can see that the key has `write` permissions for documents and folders. If you can provide the request the you are making which is unexpectedly returning a 403, we may be able to help identify why.

I am using the example request in the tutorial

curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.lucid.app/documents \
  --header 'accept: application/json' \
  --header 'authorization: Bearer key-<masked>' \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --header 'lucid-api-version: 1' \
  --data ' {
          "title": "Created Document",
          "product": "lucidchart",
          "parent": 1234
        }'

I think I figured it out. The `parent` field corresponds to which folder you want the document to be created in, but you do not have write access to `folderId 1234` (or it doesn’t exist). Remove that parameter or change it to a folder on your account.

I notice the domain is `api.lucid.app`. I believe that works, but technically should be `api.lucid.co`.  Is that taken directly from our tutorial, or did you type it manually? (Just in case we need to update something somewhere).

tutorial is here:
https://developer.lucid.co/reference/createorcopyorimportdocument#document-creation-location

 

Thanks, I’l get this updated to have the correct domain and not include the optional parent parameter.

I have tried setting the parent folder to be my main folder, same results
 

removing the ‘parent’ parameter worked.  Thank you!

I also suggest moving that ‘view only’ to somewhere other than right next to ‘grants’, or better yet, remove it completely.  If there’s no ‘edit’ button, users assume its view only.
