The following urllib code works to connect to the using the :

import urllib3
import json

# Initialize a PoolManager instance
http = urllib3.PoolManager()

# Define the URL, headers, and data
url = "https://<url>"
headers = {
    "Authorization": "Bearer <token>",
    "Content-Type": "application/json; charset=utf-8"
}
data = {
    "name": "some_test"
}

# Encode data to JSON
encoded_data = json.dumps(data).encode('utf-8')

# Send the POST request
response = http.request(
    'POST',
    url,
    body=encoded_data,
    headers=headers
)

# Print the response status and data
print(response.status)
print(response.data.decode('utf-8'))

I also tried connecting via this CURL command which works:

curl -X "POST" "https://<url>" 
    -H 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' 
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' 
    -d $'{
  "name": "some_test"
}'

But using the requests module the code returns a 401 message -> Unauthorized:

import requests


url = "<url>"
headers = {
    "Authorization": "Bearer <token>",
    "Content-Type": "application/json; charset=utf-8"
}
data = {
    "name": "some_test"
}

response = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=data)

print(response.status_code)
print(response.text)

I tried different requests version but all behave the same. What am I missing? Could it be a different conflict?
