Hi everyone! Thank you for attending todays workshop. :slight_smile:

A user reached out with a specific issue but I will post it here for visibility.

They ran into this error message:

File "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\activestate\cache\d640f80d\lib\site-packages\requests\utils.py", line 978, in check_header_validity
    raise InvalidHeader("Invalid return character or leading space in header: %s" % name)
requests.exceptions.InvalidHeader: Invalid return character or leading space in header: Authorization

This is due to a trailing/leading invalid character when you typed in your credentials at the “state auth” stage.

To resolve this you’ll have to log back in and type your username/password again.

  1. state auth logout
  2. close your terminal
  3. open a new terminal
  4. state auth again and type very carefully

Cheers!
