Current Behavior

I am encountering an issue with the AppLovin MAX Unity SDK where my app receives an unauthorized caller error. The error log indicates that my package is not allowed to call the API. This issue prevents the registration of ad impressions. I encountered this error on the interstitial hidden callback. My Unity activity is not enabled after interstitial closed. This issue occurs unpredictably, sometimes on the 3rd ad impression, and other times on the 50th ad impression.

Error Log:

@onurclb - to confirm, you are not explicitly trying to register an impression right, and you are just observing this error message in our SDK? If so, could you enable and send over our SDK's verbose logs so we can see what is triggering that code path?
