ForbiddenException: Not authorized to call Chime SDK with Account Id xxx

[roberttaylor426]

I recently received the following error. Does anyone know what it means, or how it could be fixed?

It suggests there is a problem with my account, but what?

I got an answer from the Chime team, and they referred me to this, In essence, there are a bunch of new libraries you need to use, which in turn call the new dedicated endpoints they are transitioning to.
