Bug Description

After deploying a fresh instance of Bambuddy and enabling authentication all generated API keys to fail authentication. Any API request using these keys returns the error message “Authentication required”.

When authentication is disabled (settings -> users -> disable), the API works as expected and API keys authenticate successfully.

This issue also occurs when testing the API keys via Bambuddy’s internal API browser.

Expected Behavior

API keys generated after installation should authenticate successfully and allow API access, regardless of whether authentication is enabled.

Steps to Reproduce

Enable authentication.
Generate an API key.
Use the API key in a request (or test it via the internal API browser).

Printer Model

Bambuddy Version

Relevant Logs / Support Package

No response

Additional Context

Logging out of the web UI and logging back in does not resolve the problem.

The behavior is consistent across all generated API keys.
