When trying to call the request to save a case, if I use HttpRequest Library as shown below it works fine:

HttpClient client = HttpClient.newHttpClient();
HttpRequest request = HttpRequest.newBuilder()
https://rms-world-check-one-api.thomsonreuters.com/v1/cases
    .uri(URI.create("https://rms-world-check-one-api.thomsonreuters.com/v1/cases"))
    .header("Content-Type", "application/json")
    .header("Authorization", authorisationString) //authorisationString computed in a different part of the code
    .header("Date", currentDateString)
    .POST(HttpRequest.BodyPublishers.ofString(body)) //body of the request
    .build();
HttpResponse<String> response = client.send(request,
    HttpResponse.BodyHandlers.ofString());
return content.readValue(response.body(), ResponseCase.class);

The above works fine.

However, when I try to use Feign Framework along with Spring, it gives me 401 error, even though we have been using it with these frameworks for years and we haven't changed anything in the code below:

@Configuration
public class ThomsonServiceClientConfig {

    @Bean
    public ThomsonServiceClient caseClient(ThomsonServiceContext context) {
        return Feign.builder()
            .logLevel(Logger.Level.BASIC)
            .logger(new Slf4jLogger())
            .decoder(new JacksonDecoder())
            .target(ThomsonServiceClient.class, "https://rms-world-check-one-api.thomsonreuters.com");
    }
}

public interface ThomsonServiceClient {

    @RequestLine("POST /v1/cases")
    @Headers({ "Content-Type: application/json", "Authorization: {auth}", "Date: {date}" })
    ResponseCase getCase(@Param("auth") String auth, @Param("date") String date, String requestBody); 
}

Having the above classes, when calling this:

return executor.submit(() -> thomsonServiceClient.getCase(authorisationString, currentDateString, body)).get(); //same authorisationString and currentDate as in the httpRequest snippet

It returns the following Exceptions:

We have been calling the WC1 api using Feign and Spring for a long time now, we just started seeing these errors this week.
