Request you to provide us the WC1 account name so that I can assist you.

Also, can you please copy the date header value that is getting generated by your code and paste it in the pre request script of your Postman in the date variable, as shown below:

var date = "Mon, 09 Sep 2019 08:13:42 GMT" and try requesting the API using Postman. Obviously, the API call will get a 401 this time as the time stamp has expired, but the idea is to check if the HMAC generated by Postman is same as the one generated by your code.

If HMAC is correct, please provide me the request headers and response headers of the API call so that I can investigate.
