This is when testing the assistant made on the dashboard by clicking "Talk to Assistant". I already went to the Vapi API keys page and deleted the default Public and Private keys, made new ones, and added the origin url https://dashboard.vapi.ai but it still wont work. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1421874701386649793/1421874701961265253/Screenshot_2025-09-29_000102.png?ex=68da9f82&is=68d94e02&hm=5eab282f43169075a03e1be17355a83d3cc37a7264cbaffc47c9924223ef1444&

It sounds like your API key may not be set as a public key or the allowed origin is not configured exactly as required. To fix this, ensure you create a public API key and add the allowed origin as exactly

https://dashboard.vapi.ai

(no trailing slash or typos). Example setup in the Vapi dashboard:

Allowed Origins: https://dashboard.vapi.ai
Key Type: Public

After saving, use this public key for dashboard testing. If you still see the error, try regenerating the key and double-check the origin spelling. Source: - [JWT Authentication Vapi Docs](https://docs.vapi.ai/customization/jwt-authentication)

Ok, so I've removed all previous keys including the private keys, created a new Public Key only adding in exactly

https://dashboard.vapi.ai

for the allowed URL (changed/added nothing else), and now it's showing the error "Invalid Key. Hot tip, you may be using the private key instead of the public key, or vice versa." https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1421874701386649793/1421876852074479637/image.png?ex=68daa182&is=68d95002&hm=72e00619134bee8c3aa6f9c4d419b7aaaa5e068309f85b5c0718633327e5cb75&

You shouldn't have to specify the origin for the new API keys. Just leave everything blank
