401未经授权的城市飞艇错误android

Question

My code is:

 String encodedData = Base64.encodeBytes("YxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxA".getBytes());

 HttpParams httpParams = new BasicHttpParams();
               HttpConnectionParams.setConnectionTimeout(httpParams, TIMEOUT_MILLISEC);
               HttpConnectionParams.setSoTimeout(httpParams, TIMEOUT_MILLISEC);
               HttpClient client = new DefaultHttpClient(httpParams);

               HttpPost request = new HttpPost("https://go.urbanairship.com/api/airmail/send/broadcast/");
              //request.setHeader(header)
               request.addHeader("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedData)

Am using application master secret as per the document suggested here:

http://urbanairship.com/docs/richpush.html?highlight=broadcast

but am getting 401 unauthorized error.

How to resolve this?

Thanks

The 401 error means you aren't properly authenticated. See this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_HTTP_status_codes#4xx_Client_Error

Are you sure you are providing your credentials properly?
