Require authorization for JSONv2 request
Use the glide.basicauth.required.jsonv2 property to designate if incoming JSONv2 requests should require basic authorization.
If the glide.basicauth.required.jsonv2 system property is not set to the recommended value of true, then this will disable Basic Authentication for JSONv2 format export processor. This also happens when combined with a wrong role within the guest_user related property (For example a high privileged user such as Admin).
Ensure that the property glide.basicauth.required.jsonv2 exists in the System Properties [sys_properties] table and is set to true.
Warning: This is a safe harbor property, meaning the value can't be altered once it's changed. It is non-revertible.
