Why does my n8n API endpoint return a 404 error?

I am trying to use the n8n API on a locally hosted docker container.
I used the following docker run command:
BASHdocker run -it --rm \ --name n8n \ -p 5678:5678 \ -v n8n_data:/home/node/.n8n \ docker.n8n.io/n8nio/n8n \ start --tunnel
I created an API key and attempted basic authentication using the same user/password as used for the UI. I then tried accessing the following URL:
HTTPhttp://localhost:5678/api/v1/wortkflows?active=true
However, I receive this error message with both Basic Auth and API key:
JSONerror 404: not found { "message": "not found" }
Debug info:
PLAINTEXT[details="instance information"] # Debug info ## core - n8nVersion: 1.76.3 - platform: docker (self-hosted) - nodeJsVersion: 20.18.2 - database: sqlite - executionMode: regular - concurrency: -1 - license: community - consumerId: unknown ## storage - success: all - error: all - progress: false - manual: true - binaryMode: memory ## pruning - enabled: true - maxAge: 336 hours - maxCount: 10000 executions ## client - userAgent: mozilla/5.0 (macintosh; intel mac os x 10_15_7) applewebkit/537.36 (khtml, like gecko) chrome/132.0.0.0 safari/537.36 - isTouchDevice: false Generated at: 2025-02-12T21:17:26.149Z [/details]
I suspect there might be a typo in the endpoint URL. What could be causing this 404 error and how can I resolve it?

It looks like your URL contains a typo. Instead of using:
HTTPhttp://localhost:5678/api/v1/wortkflows?active=true
you should use:
HTTPhttp://localhost:5678/api/v1/workflows?active=true
Ensure that all endpoint names are spelled correctly. This should resolve the 404 error you are encountering.
