HTTP 401missing_credentials

Missing credentials

The request arrived with no credential at all — no Authorization header and no x-api-key header.

Likely causes

The Authorization header was never set on the request.
A proxy or client library stripped the header before it reached the API.

How to fix

Send `Authorization: Bearer gid_…` (or the `x-api-key` header) on every request.
Mint a key in the app under Profile → API Keys, then store it as a server-side secret.
