@er4z0r I see this error if the IP address is not whitelisted and I test the API configuration:

I think step 4 in your post references the "Pull Domains from Namecheap" update task on the control panel page. That does trigger "successfully" and record as successful with Django Q, but the result shows the error about the IP.

The problem is you, the user requesting the update, don't see that error. The issue was actually in the webpage template. There was a bad conditional check that meant the error wasn't displayed. I fixed it so you will now see this:
