So, I recently requested to add my single-tenant instance to the Fediseer catalog. I entered my community and user name in the website, and out of caution I chose to use the Mastodon proxy to receive the confirmation message. Over 24 hours later, the API code has not arrived. And when I try to request it again, I get the following error:

There was an api error: You have already claimed this instance as this admin. Please use the PATCH method to reset your API key.

Problem is, the PATCH method requires my API key which, as discussed above, never arrived at all! Is there some mechanism for the instance claim to time out after a certain period so I can try again, or am I officially out of luck?

No worries, I can reset your API key as fediseer.com. Can you tell me what's your instance and your admin name? Also if you're using the mastodon proxy, pleasew check you're not blocking @fediseer@botsin.space

This is my instance and admin:

  • communities.azkware.net
  • csolisr

I'm not blocking the botsin.space domain, which is why I'm confused on the message not arriving at all.

Can you follow the botsin.space account? Then I'll try to resend

Like, from Lemmy directly? How do I do so?

Oh, yours is lemmy server right. Mastodon PMs don't work on lemmy. I'll send you a normal PM and adjust the bot to avoid this problem

Done! Closing the ticket
