API Testing Challenges 32 - How To - unauthorized secret note 401
How to complete the unauthorized secret note challenge, which returns a status code of 401 Unauthorized.
Issue a GET request on the `/secret/note` end point and receive 401 when no X-AUTH-TOKEN header present
`GET` request means use the HTTP Verb GET
e.g. `GET /secret/note` sends to the secret note endpoint
`no X-AUTH-TOKEN header present` means no custom header named `X-AUTH-TOKEN` should be added to the message
add the `X-CHALLENGER` header to track progress
Receive a 401 UNAUTHORIZED response because no authorization token is present
