Hi all, just a qq around this mapping here: https://github.com/apollographql/datasource-rest/blob/main/src/RESTDataSource.ts#L377
This is one of those things that I've always felt makes more sense to be
UNAUTHENTICATED
but sadly isn't so.https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110.html#name-401-unauthorized
This mapping mentioned above tripped me up a bit because it seems to go against the spec and the expectation from the client is usually for this code to be
UNAUTHORIZED
just for historical reasons.Wanted to see how others felt about this and whether it might be something that could be changed. Thanks!
