Sorry about that, just pushed a fix, if you can download the latest from github and try again

Just setting up the module and when I try to use the Save-APIKey cmdlet I get an error setting it.

    Initially I thought it was a problem with the API Key length, but from experimenting with different password length it seems that the cmdlet works fine when the password length is divisible by 4 (e.g. 8, 12, 16 chars in length) and the error occurs when it's not.

Thanks for that, I've tried and confirmed that it works for me.
