My ERC721 contract successfully deploys, but I can't verify the contract's source code with hardhat

I deployed my contract with npx hardhat run scripts/deploySurfaceReachT1NFT.ts --network mumbai. My deploy script looks like this:

const hre = require("hardhat");

async function main() {
  const SurfaceReachT1NFT = await hre.ethers.getContractFactory("SurfaceReachT1NFT");
  const surfaceReachT1NFT = await SurfaceReachT1NFT.deploy("surfaceReachT1NFT", "SRT1", "https://", "https://");
  await surfaceReachT1NFT.deployed();
  console.log("SurfaceReach1NFT deployed to:", surfaceReachT1NFT.address);
}

main()
  .then(() => process.exit(0))
  .catch((error) => {
    console.error(error);
    process.exit(1);
  });

I tried running npx hardhat verify --network mumbai 0x7C92EA6b2465f49FE2195F2FCFe00d43FD06faAc "SurfaceReachT1NFT" "SRT1" "https://" but I got this error in my terminal:

We tried verifying your contract SurfaceReachT1NFT without including any unrelated one, but it failed.
Trying again with the full solc input used to compile and deploy it.
This means that unrelated contracts may be displayed on Etherscan...

This is my config file:

import { HardhatUserConfig } from "hardhat/config";
import "@nomicfoundation/hardhat-toolbox";
import "./tasks";
const dotenv = require("dotenv");
dotenv.config();

const privKey = process.env.REACT_APP_PRIVATE_KEY ? process.env.REACT_APP_PRIVATE_KEY : '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000';

const config: HardhatUserConfig = {
  solidity: "0.8.18",
  networks: {
    sepolia: {
      url: process.env.REACT_APP_RINKEBY_RPC_URL,
      accounts: [privKey]
    },
    localhost: {
      url: "http://127.0.0.1:8545",
      accounts: [privKey]
    },
    mumbai: {
      url: process.env.REACT_APP_POLYGON_RPC_URL,
      accounts: [privKey]
    }
  },
  etherscan: {
    apiKey: process.env.REACT_APP_ETHERSCAN_KEY
  }
};
    
export default config;

I made my API key (REACT_APP_ETHERSCAN_KEY) by going to https://polygonscan.com, creating an account, and creating a new API key. I know the contract is deployed on mumbai testnet but you can't create an account and login on https://mumbai.polygonscan.com/.

So why is the verify command failing?

Try run just npx hardhat verify --network mumbai 0x7C92EA6b2465f49FE2195F2FCFe00d43FD06faAc

and config file

etherscan: {
    apiKey: {
      polygonMumbai: process.env.REACT_APP_ETHERSCAN_KEY
    }
  }

upd Did you verify your conntract? In polygonscan all good
