UserError: Invalid SDK key provided. Please call initialize with a valid client SDK key

Not specified by the original author.

TL;DR

Use your Client SDK key (dvc_client...), which the reporter confirmed fixed it. Check your version of DevCycle first , maintainers often fix the underlying bug in a later release, and the thread may predate it.

2. This comes from one real issue thread (https://github.com/DevCycleHQ/js-sdks/issues/1151); it is the verified fix or approach from that thread, not a general manual. Check your version of DevCycle first , maintainers often fix the underlying bug in a later release, and the thread may predate it.
