Description
I'm using Redoc as a React component and I've just added basic authentication.
When I access the url of the spec directly it shows the login modal, but when I add the url to the React component and access the React website, the login modal doesn't appear and I get a 401 Unauthorized from the spec url.
Is there a way to show the login modal in the React website in the same way it appears accessing the spec url directly?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the difference between opening the spec URL directly and loading it through the React component. Trace how the React entry point handles a 401 response and compare it with the direct-spec authentication flow; done means the React website can show the login modal for protected specs.
