API REST API Azure API unexpectedly crashes

Question

I am automating part of my tenant API Management Management and suddenly I get “401 Unauthorized” messages in my code. Any ideas how I can determine why this is happening?

Thank you if you still have the authorization header included in your requests (as is likely to be). There you see a value of type querystring, starting with & ex = [SOME DATA / TIME] . Like this:

Authorization: SharedAccessSignature uid = 53dd860e1b72ff0467030003 & ex = 2014-08-04T22: 03: 00.0000000Z & sn = ItH6scUyCazNKHULKA0Yv6T + Skk4bdVmLqcPPPdWoxl2n1 + rVbhKljfrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfrqrfr

Probably it has expired. Recover a new SAS in the portal or through code. On the Azure portal, you can click "Manage" and on the AAM portal, click "Security", as described here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/azure/dn798668.aspx#ProgrammaticallyCreateToken
