Originally assigned to: @DarkFighterLuke on GitHub.

I've read the documentation

I have read the how to open an issue guide, particularly the bug report section.

Operating System

debian

Your Bug Report

Describe the bug

When the plugin send a request to the tubearchivist server, it gets a Forbidden as response. If I copy paste the request url into the browser I get a Django page whit the response. I used the admin account api key on the plugin configuration. It seems like it's sending the wrong key maybe? Or I missed some step on configuring jellyfin and tubearchivist?

Steps To Reproduce

Expected behavior

Relevant Jellyfin log output

[13:25:50] [INF] [86] Jellyfin.Plugin.TubeArchivistMetadata.Plugin: Getting metadata for channel:  (UC-ciXrv4h_IE3ga1dMfTUdA)
[13:25:50] [INF] [86] Jellyfin.Plugin.TubeArchivistMetadata.Plugin: Received metadata: 
null

Anything else?

I recreated the jellyfin Youtube library after a restart and it now works, awesome!

Hi @BigGDeX , unfortunately it is a Jellyfin problem, it seems not reading the configuration properly some times and you need to reload the Dashboard page or restart the Jellyfin server.

Happy you found the solution by yourself :)

Unfortunately, no combination of restarting and recreating the library helps for me, I still get "Forbidden" error. Is there anything other I can try to make it work?
