Macbook Pro M1 chip Key Replacement

My right arrow key was feeing very stiff , as if something were underneath it, and after I used compressed air to clean it, I tried clicking on the key again, and it came off. Part of it is still stuck to the keyboard on one side, but the rest of it won’t click back into place. I have applecare warranty , will this cover a repair for my key? Will I need to pay a fee?

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 13.1
