My build fails with the following message:

"Error publishing package. NuGet server returned 401: An API key must be provided in the 'X-NuGet-ApiKey' header to use this service"

And here is a link to the build.

https://ci.appveyor.com/project/dneimke/code-timer/build/0.0.42

I am able to deploy when using the following deploy_script:

deploy_script:
 - appveyor DownloadFile https://dist.nuget.org/win-x86-commandline/latest/nuget.exe
 - ps: .\nuget.exe setApiKey $env:nuget_apikey -source https://www.nuget.org | out-null
 - ps: ($artifacts.values | Where-Object { $_.path -like '*.nupkg' }) | foreach-object {nuget.exe push $_.path -Source https://www.nuget.org/api/v2/package}

But when I try to use the following deploy task, it fails:

deploy:
- provider: NuGet
  api_key:
    secure: $env:nuget_apikey
  skip_symbols: true

   Try modifying deploy section like:

   deploy:
   - provider: NuGet
     api_key: $(nuget_apikey)
     skip_symbols: true
