HTTP 401UnauthorizedIngest APIRead APIManagement API

What happened

No API key was presented, or the key is unknown, revoked, or belongs to a suspended account. The header must be Authorization: Bearer <key>.

How to fix it

Check the header name and the Bearer prefix, then confirm the key is still listed and not revoked under API keys. A key is shown once at creation — if it was lost, roll it rather than hunting for it.
