The header authentication as shown in the video does not work for me. I think I'm encountering a known issue with n8n (self hosted) where the value gets reset to __n8n_BLANK_VALUE_e5362baf-c777-4d57-a609-6eaf1f9e87f6 after closing the edit window. I've tried to send headers instead, but I get a 401 error saying the header format is incorrect. Has anyone else encountered this or tried sending headers instead of selecting the Generic Credential Type?
