We don't use the API key in Mahara core, so there's no need to fix this:

Although it was in the original blocktype plugin made by Gregor, the API
key configuration and usage functionality was never added to the
original plugin in mahara core.

If we see the original patch made for this: https://reviews.mahara.org/#/c/5749
the API key part was removed in patchset 9 before being approved. This means this part was never merged and we only allow embed code that doesn't require the API.
Bug report to add Embed.ly blocktype to mahara core: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1441395


So now, we can only use embedly to add a url, that will create a embedded link, or a card. They are both working fine as far as I can see.
 
The cards added to a view are working fine. We should check how is the url supposed to be displayed by creating a card here: http://embed.ly/code. We can also check if the domain is included in the embedly providers list: http://embed.ly/providers.

  Embedly discontinued its free API tiers and only paid subscriptions
  are available. Cards doesn't seem to work properly when viewing a
  Mahara page (it is OK in edit mode). So we'll need to take a look at
  what to do with embedly and if we can still provide it to some degree.
