Getting a '401 Authorisation Required' Error – How Do I Fix This? or Why Am I Seeing '401 Authorisati

Been there! 401 authorisation required usually means your creds are right but the server’s not happy.

Double-check:
- Are you sending credentials in the right format? Basic Auth needs 'username:password' base64 encoded.
- If it’s token-based, is it in the 'Bearer' format?

Try curl with -v flag to see the full request/response. Sometimes the server gives hints in the response headers.
