Troubleshooting: “Unauthorized” when saving or editing

Why “Unauthorized” appears and how to fix it.

Troubleshooting: “Unauthorized” when saving or editing

“Unauthorized” is a safety check. It usually means Zavora can’t confirm a valid signed-in session for the action you’re attempting.

Most common causes

  • Your session expired.
  • You opened the app in a new tab after being signed out.
  • You’re trying to edit/delete something you don’t own.

Fix it

  1. Refresh the page.
  2. Sign in again.
  3. Retry the action.

Good to know

Zavora restricts destructive actions (edit/delete) to the owner of the recipe for safety.
