1. Go to the Apify Console
2. Click your profile avatar → Settings → Integrations
3. Under API tokens, click + Add new token
4. Give the token a name and click Create — copy the token value immediately, it is only shown once

Personal API tokens carry the same permissions as your account. For production integrations, create a scoped token with the minimum permissions required.

• Cause: API token not provided in request headers or incorrect format
• Solution:
  1. Verify Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY and X-Mewcp-Credential-Id: CREDENTIAL-ID headers are present
  2. Check API token is active in your MewCP account

• Cause: API calls have exceeded your request limits
• Solution:
  1. Check credit usage in your Curious Layer dashboard
  2. Upgrade to a paid plan or add credits for higher limits
  3. Contact support for credit adjustments

• Cause: No Apify credential linked to your account
• Solution:
  1. Go to Credentials in your MewCP dashboard
  2. Add your Apify API token
  3. Retry the request with the correct X-Mewcp-Credential-Id header

• Cause: JSON payload is invalid or missing required fields
• Solution:
  1. Validate JSON syntax before sending
  2. Ensure all required tool parameters are included
  3. When using apify_run_actor, pass input_data as a JSON string, not an object

• Cause: Incorrect server name in the API endpoint
• Solution:
  1. Verify endpoint format: {server-name}/mcp/{tool-name}
  2. Use correct server name from documentation
  3. Check available servers in your Curious Layer account

• Cause: Upstream Apify API returned an error
• Solution:
  1. Check Apify service status at Apify Status Page
  2. Verify your API token has the required permissions for the operation
  3. Review the error message for specific details (e.g. Actor not found, insufficient compute units)
