Hi Mezzan. I’ve tried myself and I get the same problem … I’ve raised this with the app developers and hope to get back to you shortly. In the meantime, one possible workaround would be to use the [HTTP](https://www.make.com/en/integrations/http) app `Make an API Key Auth request` module instead. That does require some technical know-how on API usage though. ---

Thanks for the response David, the http method that you shared seemed like it would work but yes, it is a little bit advanced for me right now, I go lost trying to set it up before making the original post. Any more help would be very appreciated. ---

Hi Mezzan. Our developer has investigated and can reproduce the problem when there’s a lack of credits in your account. Although the Fal.ai API used to provide a level of access with Free plans, it seems that’s no longer the case. When credits are added, the connection succeeds. The app is being updated to provide better error messages on connection failures, but this will take up to a week to be pushed live. ---

Thanks for the help with this David, I thought that was the issue but I didn’t want to spend the money till I knew for sure. ---
