I keep getting an 'Invalid API key' response when trying to make a call to the data.dol.gov v2 API. Here is what my call looks like, please help!

base_endpoint = 'https://data.dol.gov/get/'
target_endpoint = 'publications_view/format/json/limit/1'
token = 'MY_API_TOKEN'

response = requests.get(base_endpoint + target_endpoint, headers={"X-API-KEY":f"{token}"})
print(json.dumps(json.loads(response.content.decode('utf-8')), indent=2))

I have been following the instructions on the API version 2 for the department of labor here: https://developer.dol.gov/accessing-the-apis-using-http-requests/

I also saw multiple unanswered posts from other users in the forum.

P.S. If I try v1 api it works, but I cannot get to the data I need using V1.

response = requests.get("http://api.dol.gov/V1/DOLAgency/Agencies/?KEY=MY_API_TOKEN")
print(response.content.decode('utf-8'))
