Double-check your token’s expiration!
JWTs can look valid but be expired (or not yet active). Use jwt.io to decode and check the `exp` field.
Also, some APIs require IP whitelisting—forgot that once and wasted hours.

If you’re using Python requests, try `response.json()` to see if the API’s hiding a clue in the body.
Once got a 401 with a JSON blob like `{"error": "token_expired"}`—would’ve missed it without checking.
Also, maybe CORS? Try from a different origin (like localhost vs. a real domain).
