S-40: 'VERTEX DEAD' was recorded THREE TIMES on the strength of a wrong auth header
'VERTEX DEAD' was recorded THREE TIMES on the strength of a wrong auth header
I recorded VERTEX DEAD three times on the strength of a wrong auth header. bts_vertex.py sends x-goog-api-key, the canonical header for a Google API key, while my probe used something else. The failures were mine, not the service's, and three writeups repeated the same mistake.
