That looks like the error you would receive if you haven't set the API key. As listed here, you need to set the API key for ZAP in either the commandline parameter --api-key or in the ZAP_API_KEY environment variable. Alternatively you can unset the API key using -config api.disablekey=true when starting ZAP (for example zap-cli start -o '-config api.disablekey=true'). You can read more about ZAP's API key here.

Thank you very much it worked for me, i have set the environment variable ZAP_API_KEY and it just worked like charm. Thank you very much for the quick reply.
