Unable to get result when using the Postman collection Meraki Dashboard API - v1.1.0

When I run the get list of organization or any get calls I get 

{
    "errors": [
        "Invalid API key"
    ]
}
 
However I can use the same API key on previous Meraki Dashboard API

I was able to resolve this. The issue was the authentication was incorrectly set.

What exactly was wrong with the authentication? I am having the same issue but can't find anything in the documentation about authentication other than setting the API key and bearer, and I am not using bearer.

Can you elaborate on what was wrong with the authentication and where you fixed it?

Going from v0 to v1 of the Meraki API, I solved this by changing the name of the "X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key" variable to "apiKey".

 

Clicking on the collection name, you can see that "X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key" is now set using the "apiKey" variable.

I keep getting same error with no luck yet of fixing it.  Any insight?

So I think I figured it out.  Once you edit your environment and save it you have to close the tab.  Once I closed the tab mine started working better.

Correct, make sure you always save your changes. I've learned that the hard way.
