Wrong message: Invalid API Key

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

I am working with Avalanche testnet and trying to verify smart contracts however the answer that I am getting is: “Invalid API Key”. I run the verification once again using --debug. Snowtrace is responding with the provided apikey to the HTTP requests so I guess the apikey is not the problem.

Steps To Reproduce

My last attempt was using metacoin example from truffle, same steps described by Avalanche documentation:

https://docs.avax.network/dapps/smart-contracts/verify-smart-contracts-with-truffle-verify/

Environment information

Operating System: Ubuntu 21.04
Node version: 16.13.2
Truffle version: 5.5.13
truffle-plugin-verify version: 0.5.25

truffle-config.js content:

const HDWalletProvider = require(“@truffle/hdwallet-provider”); const { apikey, mnemonic } = require(“./.env.json”);

module.exports = { plugins: [ ‘truffle-plugin-verify’ ], api_keys: { snowtrace: apikey }, networks: { fuji: { provider: () => new HDWalletProvider(mnemonic, https://api.avax-test.network/ext/bc/C/rpc), network_id: 43113, timeoutBlocks: 200, confirmations: 5 } } };
