We have started receiving errors from the Hubpot API when trying to fetch a form using this endpoint: [https://api.hubapi.com/forms/v2/forms/](https://api.hubapi.com/forms/v2/forms/) The error returned is: “This endpoint does not accept EXTERNAL hapikeys, and has no special allowances for this hapikey” Even trying the demo link in [the documentation](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/forms/v2/get_form) gives the same error so it doesn’t seem like it’s a key issue [https://api.hubapi.com/forms/v2/forms/1eae3941-9ce8-411d-8b91-87a92c0c9d5c/?hapikey=demo](https://api.hubapi.com/forms/v2/forms/1eae3941-9ce8-411d-8b91-87a92c0c9d5c/?hapikey=demo) Any ideas? ---

We are experiencing the exact same issue with our account. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ---

Thanks for reaching out, @daveb, @mwhelan, and @jeffnappi. I’ve been able to reproduce this behavior with my own external API key. The same key works for other endpoints like [Get all forms](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/forms/v2/get_forms) and [Get contact by ID](https://developers.hubspot.com/docs/methods/contacts/get_contact). Can you confirm whether this is the case for you all? Please share your Hub IDs as well so that I can record the impact of the issue. ---

[@Isaac\_Takushi](https://community.hubspot.com/u/isaac_takushi) Yes, I can confirm that getting all forms still works for us. Our Hub ID is 106921. ---

We are experiencing the same issue, but not getting the forms at all. Hubspot ID is 2266771. ---

Hey, all. The forms team just pushed a fix which should be in production. Can you confirm whether the issue has been resolved? ---
