Thanks Philippe. All of our incoming traffic is authenticated using an
ID/Bearer token. In fact, I posted the original question after talking to
our infra team and being told that the Graphite endpoint needs an ID token
for authentication.  I'm not a network guy but perhaps our Graphite server
sits behind an endpoint where incoming traffic goes through authentication
and then is directed to the appropriate (in this case Graphite) server.
