I'm trying to create a metafield on a page from a private app using the REST API, but getting back an unexpected HTML response that appears to be an attempt to redirect to an OAuth authentication page.
I'm doing a POST to /api/2021-10/pages/{id}/metafields.json where {id} is the id of the page I'm trying to add the metafield to. I'm using HTTP basic authentication.
Here's the data I'm posting:
{
"metafield": {
"namespace": "test",
"key": "test",
"value": 25,
"owner_id": 90910130356,
"owner_resource": "page",
"type": "json"
}
}
And here's the response I'm getting back:

If it helps, I can GET the metafields for a page just fine (it correctly returns a json content type with an empty array). Attempting to create a metafield fails as described above though.
