The Movie Database Support

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.
