Fill in the API Key for an unofficial provider

Cause

This issue occurs in the older provider editor: when editing an existing provider, the API Key field may not appear, causing an error when saving. The maintainer said cc-switch 4.0 rewrote the provider editor and removed the old generic configuration snippets and the logic that repopulated the live configuration when switching, so the older editor and placeholder credential handling have changed.

Fix

1. 1

   Upgrade to cc-switch 4.0 or later. The maintainer provided the latest release page; if the API Key field is still missing after upgrading, include the version, provider type (official or third-party), and a screenshot.
