Description
I followed the documentation and set up my API credentials as below:
public static Properties getMyMerchantDetails() {
Properties props = new Properties();
// HTTP_Signature = http_signature and JWT = jwt
props.setProperty("authenticationType", "http_signature");
props.setProperty("merchantID", "my_web_au");
props.setProperty("runEnvironment", "apitest.cybersource.com");
props.setProperty("merchantKeyId", "my_merchant_id");
props.setProperty("merchantsecretKey", "my_sercret_key");
props.setProperty("useMetaKey", "false");
props.setProperty("enableClientCert", "false");
return props;
}
it gives me 401 unauthorized error:
Response{protocol=http/1.1, code=401, message=Unauthorized, url=https://apitest.cybersource.com/pts/v2/payments}
public static Properties getMerchantDetails() {
Properties props = new Properties();
// HTTP_Signature = http_signature and JWT = jwt
props.setProperty("authenticationType", "http_signature");
props.setProperty("merchantID", "testrest");
props.setProperty("runEnvironment", "apitest.cybersource.com");
props.setProperty("requestJsonPath", "src/main/resources/request.json");
props.setProperty("useMetaKey", "false");
// HTTP Parameters
props.setProperty("merchantKeyId", "ggggggggggg");
props.setProperty("merchantsecretKey", "gggggggggg");
props.setProperty("enableClientCert", "false");
return props;
}
The above gives which is me 201 proper response.
I am sure my credentials are correctly created. Is there anything else I should add or modify to get past authorization?

Research direction
Start by comparing the properties in getMyMerchantDetails() with the working getMerchantDetails() example, focusing on the merchant ID, key ID, secret key, authentication type, and run environment. Reproduce the request against https://apitest.cybersource.com/pts/v2/payments and verify that the corrected configuration returns the expected 201 response instead of 401 Unauthorized.
