Authentication

We have passed the base64 encoded credentials through the Authorization header, ‘Zm9vOmJhcg==’ is the encoded username:password pair (‘foo:bar’), you can use any tool to base64 encode/decode.

If wrong or no authentication credentials are provided, a 401 Unauthorized error will be returned.
