Being completely new to the BIM 360 API I have been attempting to use the sample labs provided here: http://bim360api.github.io/
However, they are very difficult to follow! As the only thing I need to change is the Api Key, Api Secret and the company ID (and none of the code) I can safely assume it's something that I'm doing wrong!
Below is the first attempt I make, the api key and api secret I got directly from the my apps section on the forge developer page https://developer.autodesk.com/myapps
Attempting this information gives me the error "ERROR;403;Invalid BIM 360 Glue SDK API key.", which considering I got the api key and secret directly from the developer page I found this odd, reading through old posts someone had tried it with a different base api url which appeared to be for testing purposes (which is all I'm after for now).
This changes that line to this;
Only now I get the error "ERROR;401;Account not found" even though I'm using the same login as I do on autodesk sites.
Can someone please point me in the right direction! Thank you!

Turns out I had a fair few problems on this one!
After using the forge help they told me that i needed to do a key exchange on the developer tab in the BIM360 product before I can use the API, this must be done on the admin account. Then secondly I was trying to access the glue API which I wasn't aware that forge did not support so couldn't finish what I wanted to do anyway! Moving on to alternatives now
Thank you, Daniel, for sharing the information!
For the sake of reducing similar confusion for those who are new to BIM 360 API, I made a blog post about BIM 360 API and Forge:
