Hi n8n community
I just received the Level 1 access email with my unique_id. I’m trying to use it in an HTTP Request node to fetch data, but I keep getting this error:
error: Please provide the correct Unique ID.
Here’s what I did:
Added a header parameter → unique_id
Value → my actual unique_id from the email
Sent the request, but the server still rejects it
Am I supposed to send the unique_id in headers , or should it go in query parameters / body instead?
Or is there a different format required (maybe wrapping it in JSON)?
Would appreciate any guidance
Thanks,
Hey @ZohaibCodez
Headers:
{
"unique-id": "your-actual-unique-id-from-email",
"Content-Type": "application/json"
}
Still not solved. Same error
@ZohaibCodez can I see the header name you previously used? And can you try it as a query parameter instead?
Yeah sure . Here i attached the screenshot.
I add unique_id to the header parameters.
Hello team and fellow n8n users,
I’m currently taking the Level 1 course. When I try to select the correct Unique ID and fill it in the parameters, I get the error ‘Please provide the correct Unique ID.’ I’ve been searching through the forum and noticed that others have experienced something similar, but I haven’t been able to get mine to work. I’ve followed the tutorial steps (or so I think) countless times and even tried switching the API key with the Unique ID just in case, but no luck.
The…
Is this same with what you are experiencing?
yeah exactly same. Thanks! What can i do now ?

Hi All,
I’m Jamie and I recently joined n8n as the Senior Dev Rel focused on Education. Part of my role is taking over our existing courses and building out our new education pathways.
Since joining I have made some updates behind the scenes to the systems that power our two text courses. These updates will help resolve the issues that you have been facing.

If you have completed the course prior to the last week and your badge is missing then you can reverify by going to the fo…
@jamiemadden_n8n is on education segment try leaving message in this announcement.
Nope, No response till now
@ZohaibCodez can you please try again checking the following:
Under your Header Auth
Name: api_key ← [Header Auth name] Value: hIujLoH(7uYG ← (something like this from your Header Auth value in your email)
Under Send Headers –> Header Parameters
Name: unique_idValue: nfdfdien45fgklfng849gdkdng633j ← (something like this from your Unique ID in your email)
Also, check your URL from Dataset URL in your email.
Could you please check everything again from the beginning to see if any parts were missed? I think that should resolve it—otherwise, you can reach out to their support team at help@n8n.io or reach out to @aya .
Thanks. But issue resolved. The problem is that i have only signed up for only level 1 . For correct working of api, I have to be signed up on both levels of courses. So i signed up also on level 2 course. And issue got resolved.
