Handle re-authentication for both unauthorized and forbidden responses #459
Conversation
WalkthroughThe change extends authentication retry logic in the cron invocation script to handle both HTTP 401 (unauthorized) and 403 (forbidden) status codes, triggering re-authentication for either response. The log message was updated to reflect this expanded error handling. Changes

Treating 403 (Forbidden) the same as 401 (Unauthorized) lacks justification and may cause unnecessary retries.
HTTP 403 indicates an authenticated user lacks permission, which is fundamentally different from 401 (authentication expired/invalid). If the endpoint returns 403 due to insufficient permissions, re-authenticating with the same credentials produces another token with identical permissions, causing the retry to fail again with 403. This wastes API calls without resolving the underlying authorization issue. The commit message provides no explanation for this behavior.
Add type hints to methods per project standards (Python 3.12+, mypy strict=true). Methods authenticate (line 53), invoke_endpoint (line 86), and run (line 131) are missing return type annotations.
Consider:
- Only trigger re-authentication on 401 (authentication problem)
- Let 403 (authorization problem) propagate as an error
- If the API returns 403 for expired tokens (non-standard), document this clearly

Although this coderabbit comment makes sense, but as a hotfix this should work.

@Prajna1999, understood! For a hotfix, getting the system working quickly is the priority.
Would you like me to create a follow-up issue to properly distinguish between 401 and 403 responses in a future PR? That way, the temporary workaround can be refined when there's more time to implement the proper authorization error handling.
