in reply to Re^2: Not sure how to use HTTP::Tiny
in thread Not sure how to use HTTP::Tiny

once when i was forced to do authorization myself (via tkx sockets) i used 

  if ($args{user} || $args{password}) { 
      use MIME::Base64;
      $tkxf_auth='Authorization: Basic '.encode_base64($args{user}.':'
+.$args{password},''); 
      }

which would make your call 
use MIME::Base64;
my $headers = {
                  Accept => "application/json",
                  'Content-Type' => "application/json",
                  Authorization => 'Authorization: Basic '.encode_base
+64($args{user}.':'.$args{password},'')
              };

Edit: the real userid/passwords are stored in the hash %args under keys userid and password!

    I get the same result (401) with

my $headers = {
                  Accept => "application/json",
                  'Content-Type' => "application/json",
                  Authorization => "Authorization: Basic ".encode_base
+64("user:password")
              };

      Try

      use MIME::Base64;
my $headers = {
    Accept => "application/json",
    'Content-Type' => "application/json",
    Authorization  => "Basic ".encode_base64("user:password"),
};
