Sorry @benrcole https://github.com/benrcole I’m not sure to understand what you’re suggesting.

I’ve tried to do it with the library (v2.14.0 and v2.15.1) and it failed. After that I tried to do manual requests myself and still having the same error at the same step of the process and I can tell you that I’m sure that the Authorization header is present on my request.

What I’ve tried to make sure my access_token was valid is to put a fake one when I try to fetch an asset or update the match policy and it failed so that confirms that my access_token is valid or at least for those endpoints…

Could you be more explicit of what works for you ? And are you doing a reference file upload too ?

Thanks
