Api key secret error

[Sohzph]

Hello,

It is my first time using Bitwarden CLI and I have entered my API Key in the console, but I get the following error:

Your authentication request appears to be coming from a bot
Please use your API key to validate this request and ensure BW_CLIENTSECRET is correct, if set.
(https://bitwarden.com/help/article/cli-auth-challenges)

Is there a way to fix this error? I don’t understand why it detects me as a bot, I introduced myself the API Key in the CLI.

Thanks.

Welcome, @Sohzph!

You’ll want to authenticate via email + master password first (along with the captcha) and then you will be able to leverage the API key for future authentication.

It was that, thanks!
