Custom app shows 401 as status code when calling freshdesk api's

I have developed a frontend app, which calls the freshdesk api’s via request templates . this api’s calls are working fine and returning the response in development
but when i packed it and uploaded the zip file in developer portal and published it.
after installing the custom app , i see the freshdesk api calls fail with status code 401.


i have attached the response ss with this and the requests.json of my which calls the freshdesk api’s.

Hey @Marri_Sri_Rahul_Sidd,

From the error message, I see that it says “Invalid credentials” and 401 status is unauthorized. Please cross verify the api key from your Freshdesk instance.

Also, in the request templates - requests.json you can use the authorization header as Basic <%= encode(iparam.apikey) %>

Let me know if this helps.

i console my iparams from app , console shows me correct apikey and subdomain which are my iparams for my app.
