Issues with pritunl api - 401 - Unauthorized

Hi,
I am using two pritunl vpn server in enterprise version, one for sandbox env, second for production and development. Both VM are hosted on AWS. Same code is being used for api calls on sbox and prod. Ofcourse with different api tokens and api secrets.
The issue is that on production server i am getting 401 error unathorized even if i generate multiple times new token and secret. Same code for sbox is working without any problems.

The server doesn’t log the reason for those 401 errors. It’s possible there’s an issue with the client or server time causing the timestamp to be out of the acceptable range. A common cause for date/time issues is having a client or server with the correct time but incorrect timezone. The time will appear to be accurate but when the software creates a timestamp it converts the systems local time to UTC, if the correct time is used with the incorrect timezone the conversion will return the wrong UTC time.
