Kindly let us know the API call that is sending a 401 error.

Are you using the sample TR/Refinitiv C# code to connect to WC1 API?

If not, I would like to know the programming language you are using to the code your app.

Also, it would be great if you can send me the request headers and response headers you are sending to the API server.

Please provide them in the below format.

@monojit.banerjee Can you kindly tell me the API call that you are having issues with? Please post the code so that I can review it.

@monojit.banerjee

You have been given access to the documentation now.

I see your code is very basic and will fail. I request you to go through the security.html in the API documentation (as you have access now) and try creating the correct HMAC with the time stamp to send successful request. This will more clear as you go through the security doc.

I also recommend you to test out the postman collection for WC1 API in the documentation using the Postman app. Have a look at the pre request script to find out how data_to_Sign variable is written so that it can be fed to the base64 function.
