When I just include it normally in an authorization header, no decryption happens, it just sends the GUID itself instead of the encrypted credential.

12/10/2025, 3:17 PMThere are 2 ways of using guids in N/https
• The first is in a https.SecureString or crypto.SecretKey
• The second is as a placeholder that is replaced by N/https when you make a request. You need to use the credentials parameter when using this method
An extra common mistake is to accidently convert the SecureString into a normal string when trying to mix the two. Don't do it, a SecureString converted to a string is useless and wont be replaced with a credential.

12/12/2025, 4:20 PMThanks guys! yea, turned out to be a misleading error message. I had messed up and used a record type ID in the "restrictToScripts" setting rather than a script ID, and apparently that causes some very strange behavior in the backend.
