I successfully installed qiskit, yet am unable to load my account in the Jupyter notebook.
Each time I load my account in Jupyter notebook here is the response I get
RequestsApiError: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized for url: https://auth.quantum-computing.ibm.com/api/users/loginWithToken. LOGIN_FAILED, Error code: LOGIN_FAILED.
What causes this?
This is normally caused by incorrect credentials being used. To fix this you can generate a new API key and update your saved credentials to use this instead.
You can do this by navigating to https://quantum-computing.ibm.com and getting your API key from the My Account section. In a notebook then run IBMQ.save_account('YOUR API KEY', overwrite=True). This will remove any incorrect credentials from your system and then the login should work.
The above answer did not work for me. This worked for me.
IBMQ.delete_account()
By deleting account, you should not be having any active accounts from IBMQ api. check that by getting active accounts
IBMQ.active_account()
After which generate a new token in your IBMQ experience website, https://quantum-computing.ibm.com/account
And then copy the new token, save that as a variable (I saved it into API_KEY), then save account in IBMQ
IBMQ.save_account(API_KEY, overwrite=True)
Sign up an IBMid account by your original mail address will fix it.
