RestSharp - Authorization Header not coming across to WCF REST service

Question

I am trying to call a locally hosted WCF REST service over HTTPS with basic auth.

This works and the Authorization header comes thru just fine and all is happy:

Answer 1

I used milano's answer to get my REST service call to work (using GET)

    Dim client2 As RestClient = New RestClient("https://api.clever.com")

    Dim request2 As RestRequest = New RestRequest("me", Method.GET)

    request2.AddParameter("Authorization", "Bearer " & j.access_token, ParameterType.HttpHeader)

    Dim response2 As IRestResponse = client2.Execute(request2)
    Response.Write("** " & response2.StatusCode & "|" & response2.Content & " **")

The key was making sure there was a space after the word 'Bearer' but this may apply to any type of custom token authorization header
