Hi,

I am automating test scripts using SOAP UI Pro and the requirement is to get a 401 unauthorized error, but I am getting a contentType null / ContentType 0 as my response.

I am using REST Service. When I try the same thing in POSTMAN it works fine and I got 401 unauthorized response.

The URL and headers are the same in POSTMAN as well as SOAP UI but I don't understand why I am not getting a 401 response in SOAP UI.

Can anyone please explain me why this is the case ?

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks,
Dhivya
