I have a free Censys account with credits topped up. I have reviewed the documentation for the Censys Platform API. The documentation explains that Organization ID’s are only available for starter and enterprise accounts. However, it also says including these in the query parameters is completely optional. Yet every time I test the API I see this error. I do not have an Organizational ID and I cannot get one. What’s the deal?

Hey there, which API endpoints are you using? The individual and bulk lookup endpoints (get host/web property/cert and retrieve multiple hosts/web properties/certs) are the only endpoints available to Free users. You might see the 422 error if you try to call an endpoint that you don’t have access to (and requires an org ID to use).
