Describe the bug

I have added a dummy API key in Purchases.configure(configuration) and encountered error logs. However, when I call Purchases.isConfigured, it returns true. Please help resolve this issue. Note that it works fine when the API key is empty.

Additional context

I've tried multiple times, but the issue persists.

@Ankooo12 the isConfigured method will return true whenever at least one call to configure has been made in the lifecycle of the app, regardless of whether the API key is correct.

In hindsight maybe we could improve the API to take that into account, but this is as of right now the behavior.

What use case are you trying to solve? Maybe we can help figure it out

[Ankooo12]

We sell app templates, and we need to verify whether our customers have configured them correctly. It was working fine before, but I believe there might be an issue with the updates.

Hey There,

The API key being correct will be needed to properly configure the SDK. This will ensure that the current app user ID is able to be created. With this being said, the error is correct if you're are passing in not the API key found in your project settings.

You said that this worked previously just passing in the "dummy" API key, did you recently update versions?

[Ankooo12]

If I enter a dummy API key, isConfigured should not return true after calling Purchases.configure(configuration). We recently encountered this issue but resolved it by using an empty string for the API key. Please check if there's anything you can do to address this; otherwise, I will consider closing the issue
