Laravel Nova 4 Installation

• Laravel Version: ^9.2
• Nova Version: ~4.0
• PHP Version: 8.1.4

Hi there

I just purchase a new Laravel nova 4 license and try to install it via composer
so I put the Laravel nova account credentials to the auth.json file and run Composer update
I get this

**********************************************
Invalid username/password combination given.
**********************************************
    Failed to download Laravel/nova from dist: Invalid credentials for 'https://nova.laravel.com/dist/laravel/nova/laravel-nova-*******f.zip', aborting. Now trying to download from the source

and then ask me to get a Github access token so I create a new one

now I get this

Failed to execute git clone --mirror 'https://MY-GITHUB-ACCESS-TOKEM:***@github.com/laravel/nova.git'
  '/Users/mohammed/.composer/cache/vcs/git-github.com-laravel-nova.git/'

Make sure you use your license key instead of your password when prompted for a password by composer.

I mistakingly entered my password, since that's have I've done on previous versions, and was met with the following message:

******************************************************************************
Unable to find Nova (Silver Surfer) license holder with the given license key.
******************************************************************************

Entering the license key instead of my password as described worked:

When running composer update, you will be prompted to provide your Nova website username and license key (opens new window), which should be used in place of your password. These credentials will authenticate your Composer session as having permission to download the Nova source code.
