401 Unauthorized for api

[ausghostdog]

I am looking at setting up watchtower with Grafana, I am using the below run commands

#!/bin/bash
workname=watchtower
workdir=/home/tim/docker/data/$workname
workpackage=containrrr/watchtower

docker run -d -h $workname
--restart=always
--name $workname
-p 8180:8080
-v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock
$workpackage --http-api-metrics --remove-volumes --cleanup --http-api-token demotoken

using postman to test the API I am getting a 401,

Just wanting to know for the key is for the value of demotoken?

[piksel]

The header should be
Authorization: Bearer demotoken if your token is demotoken.

that seems to be working now

but this is interesting, watch tower saying it

watchtower_containers_failed 0
watchtower_containers_scanned 0
watchtower_containers_updated 0
watchtower_scans_skipped 0
watchtower_scans_total 0

I have 20 containers in total, when I ran a run once yesterday it was able to scan and update no issues

looks like I need to change the time and scan
yeah, changing the interval worked
