Subject: HTTP 401 Unauthorized – Why am I getting this and how do I fix it?

Hey everyone,

So I’m working on this API integration, and keep hitting an http 401 error. Super frustrating!

I’ve double-checked my credentials, tokens, everything *seems* correct... but still no luck.

Anyone else run into this?

Is it a server-side thing? Maybe expired tokens? Or am I just missing something obvious?

Would really appreciate any tips or common pitfalls to check for.

Thanks in advance!

(Also, sorry if this has been asked a million times – I did search but still stuck.)
