(role: applications) missing scope (account) Please Help

I'm using an api key with all the permissions to create a client. This client is then being used to get the 'current' session:

const client = new Client()
.setEndpoint(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APPWRITE_ENDPOINT!)
.setProject(process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_APPWRITE_PROJECT!)
.setKey(process.env.NEXT_APPWRITE_SECRET!);

const account = new Account(client);

const session = await account.getSession('current');
This returns an error:

response: {

message: 'app.___.cloud.appwrite.io (role: applications) missing scope (account)',

code: 401,

type: 'general_unauthorized_scope',

version: '1.6.1'

}

Before this is executed, I'm creating a session when logging in the user and in this code, im executing it when attempting to logout the user. I'm 100% sure im using the correct API key so i have no idea why its saying its unauthorised. someone please help
