Hello Samurai,

I am getting the same error.

All I could find online regarding that, was about the api key from Microsoft Cloud.

I registered a free account, get the api key, set it in the api key section from the Cloud Ocr activity, but I still get the same error.

Any news regarding this?

Did you ever get this working? I’ve done the same as you and are getting the same error.
