Hello Sean,
I was doing some testing, trying to re-create your calls, when I noticed
what may be the source of the problem. It appears to me your API key (or
at least, the only one that's associated with your account - the one
linked to the ZHAOS-ARIN POC handle) is deactivated. You might want to
log in to our web site to verify. If the API key is marked with a
deactivation date, it won't work. You have to generate a new one.
With respect to the required POCs, I would refer you to:
https://www.arin.net/resources/restful-interfaces.html#database
You'll note there that admin, org tech, and org abuse are noted as
mandatory.
Let's first make sure you're using an active API key, and once we verify
that, we can work on determining the source of any successive error
messages.
If you have any further questions, comments, or concerns please respond to
this message or contact me directly.
Regards,
Jon Worley
