Issue/Introduction

I am testing the search via REST API: https://localhost:8088/ae/api/v1/100/search 

After many attempts, I find out that no matter what I search or the result is found or not, in the JCP logs always have two http status 401 and 200: 

20180525/111606.265 - 35 U00045098 Method 'POST', URL: 'http://JCP_server_name:8088/ae/api/v1/100/search' 
20180525/111606.266 - 35 U00045099 The server replied with following status: '401' 
20180525/111606.513 - 35 U00045105 Log on of 'AE/AE' successful. 
20180525/111606.551 - 35 U00045098 Method 'POST', URL: 'http://JCP_server_name:8088/ae/api/v1/100/search' 
20180525/111606.552 - 35 U00045099 The server replied with following status: '200' 

Relate to what I read from https://docs.automic.com/documentation/webhelp/english/AWA/12.1/AE/12.1/REST%20API/ae_rest_api.html#client_id__search_post 

Http status 401 is stand for Unauthorized - the client lacks valid authentication credentials, i.e. you used a non-existing username/password. Also triggered if the authorization service is not available
