ActiveHTTP 401UNAUTHENTICATED
The request does not have valid authentication credentials. UNAUTHENTICATED is returned when the caller's identity cannot be verified – no credentials provided, credentials expired, or credentials are invalid. The client should authenticate and retry.
Description
UNAUTHENTICATED indicates missing or invalid authentication credentials. Unlike PERMISSION_DENIED where the identity is known but lacks permission, UNAUTHENTICATED means the server cannot identify the caller at all.
