Affinda has three regional APIs: use the base URL matching your account's region

TL;DR

If your Affinda calls fail with auth or routing errors, check the region first. Use the base URL for your account's region: api.affinda.com (Australia/global), api.us1.affinda.com (US), or api.eu1.affinda.com (EU). A US account hitting the global endpoint will not work right.

Use this when you run into the situation in the title.
