Clerk Starter Template does not work

Support
1

I’m trying to use the Clerk starter template. So far it’s not working.
I created an app on the clerk site. I have set the following env variables, in the deploy settings.

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_FRONTEND_API
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
CLERK_SECRET_KEY

I also added the following property to the ClerkProvider. I saw this had to be done on a post somewhere. Not sure why this was not part of the starter template. Or maybe I’m totally off base here.

<ClerkProvider {...pageProps} publishableKey={process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY}>

I get the following error when I launch the deployed app.

Uncaught Error: @clerk/clerk-js: The publishableKey passed to Clerk is invalid. You can get your Publishable key at Dashboard | Clerk.com. (key=premium-katydid-73.clerk.accounts.dev)

App is at: https://shiny-pasca-f94044.netlify.app/

I already asked support at Clerk, but have not got a usesable response yet.

Thanks for any help.

Based on the error message, the key is invalid. Are you using the right key?

Yes. verified by printing to console the environment variable.

At that point it would be a question for Clerk than Netlify. The error is thrown by their library.
