Authorization Header Missing

  • Hello,
    Recently I transferred the site I’m working on from WP Engine to Amazon AWS. After the transfer we noticed an issue that appears when using the Site Health plugin.

    “The Authorization header comes from the third-party applications you approve. Without it, those apps cannot connect to your site.”

    It also appears that when Zenventory attempted to connect to the site we received a similar message:

    “status”:”error”,
    “error”: “MISSING_AUTHORIZATION_HEADER”.
    “code”: “401”,
    “error_description”: “Authorization header not received. Either authorization header was not sent or it was removed by your server do to security reasons.”

    I have been attempting to troubleshoot this for sometime now and have come to a dead-end. A few places have recommended checking the .htaccess file as well as flushing permalinks, both of which I have done.

    Any guidance would be helpful. As an added note, the site is running Woocommerce.

    URL of site if necessary:

    Auth headers are often used in API connections. If your Woo store was connected to Zenventory via an API it could be that the API connection has been broken during the move. Look at the settings for it, as well as any other 3rd party integrations you have.
