Summary0006885: Wrong error message upon malformed Authorization header
DescriptionWhat the request below lacks is the "Bearer" word before the actual token,

{
   "code": 26,
   "hint": "A parameter in the request was malformed.",
   "detail": "'secret-token:' prefix missing in 'Authorization' header"
}
