Anyone getting a 401 error from VRM API?

Suddenly with no software changes from my side, I'm getting a 401 error when I fetch:

https://vrmapi.victronenergy.com/v2/users/XXXXX/installations?extended=1

Tokens are correct... Can it be a ACL/CORs change from Victron?

Any info/help is appreciated...

Thanks in advance!

Solved, sometimes tokens generate special characters / combination of them that need to be escaped... not scaping this access token caracters made the request invalid and so 401.

Thanks for your post @abascuna@gmail.com I ran into this issue today. Now if I get a 401 my code fetches a new token and tries again.
