    Hi there. Thanks for getting in touch.

    Sometimes we see this with third party services such as Vercel, and it almost always boils down to environment variables not being configured properly, so that would be the first thing to check.

    Could you please run this script and let us know the output?

    // Requirements
    require("dotenv").config();
    const cloudinary = require("cloudinary").v2;
    
    // Check the environment variables are set correctly
    if (!process.env.CLOUD_NAME
    	|| !process.env.API_KEY
    	|| !process.env.API_SECRET) {
    	console.error("Environment variables not set");
    	return; // End script upon error
    }
    
    // Configure the Cloudinary object
    cloudinary.config({
    	cloud_name: process.env.CLOUD_NAME,
    	api_key: process.env.API_KEY,
    	api_secret: process.env.API_SECRET,
    	secure: true
    });
    
    // Check the Cloudinary object is correctly set up
    if (!cloudinary.config().cloud_name
    	|| !cloudinary.config().api_key
    	|| !cloudinary.config().api_secret) {
    	console.error("Cloudinary config not set up");
    	return; // End script upon error
    }
    
    // Log the config parameters
    const cloudName = cloudinary.config().cloud_name;
    const apiKey = cloudinary.config().api_key;
    console.log({cloudName, apiKey})
    

    Many thanks,
    -Danny
