Bug Description

What happened ?

When I tried changing the authorization type to “inherit” and saved it, then tested several API endpoints with authorization, the response was ‘Unauthorized’ because the setting reverted to “none” and the cookie was not set.

@ashaffah Could you close all the tabs, reopen them, and check if the issue still persists? also is this issue reproducible with personal workspace ?

Thank you for the detailed explanation, can you check if there is a collection level auth set for auth folder

ERP Reborn is a root collection, so it cannot inherit authorization since it does not have a parent folder to inherit from. Yes, this is a UI bug, there should not be an “Inherit” option for a root collection, which is why it resets to “None” on save. We will patch this soon.

Can you confirm if this is the issue you are referring to?

Or is the issue that the Login request from the Auth folder is inheriting authorization correctly, while the Get All request from the Tax folder is not inheriting it?

I appreciate your response thank you🙏.

Yes you're right, as you mentioned when i Get All request from the Tax folder is not inheriting it from Auth

My expectation looks like this :

@nivedin commented on GitHub (Mar 5, 2026):

@ashaffah Thank you for the detailed explanation. From the description and details you’ve provided, it looks more like a cookie issue, not an authorization inheritance issue. The collection is not inheriting auth, but the Get All request is trying to fetch the cookie set from the Login request. In Hoppscotch, you have to manually set the cookie before calling the Get All request.
We have a PR open for automating this which will fix the issue.

You can check out the cookie doc for more details.
Let me know if this resolves your issue.
