Common Issues & Solutions

Problem: "API key invalid" error

Solution: Verify your API key is correct and the game project is active in your dashboard.

// Check your API key format
const apiKey = "sp_live_1234567890abcdef"; // Should start with sp_live_ or sp_test_

Problem: Save data not syncing across devices

Solution: Ensure players are authenticated with the same device ID or account. Check network connectivity and retry logic.

Problem: Live config values not updating

Solution: Config values are cached for 5 minutes. Force refresh by restarting your game or calling the config endpoint directly.
