Hi,

401 errors occur because the request has failed an authorization check. This can happen for a variety of reasons, such as

  • An invalid or expired API key,
  • An invalid HMAC signature.
  • Request timing issue/problem with the Date header value. In this scenario, you should ensure a correctly synchronized clock with NTP or the GMT clock is used to generate request timestamps.
  • Incorrect JSON payload formation at your end that can cause a 401 response.

Can you please share the complete request and response for the failed API call so that we can investigate this further?


Thanks,

Mehran Khan
