"401 Unauthorized" and "403 Forbidden" are two different HTTP errors. CouchDB uses the first one when the server requires authentication credentials, and the second one when the request requires an authorisation that the current user does not have.
For instance, using a
validate_doc_update
design document can result in "403 Forbidden" being returned. See the official documentation for more details and examples:This patch adds Forbidden to the list of HTTP errors raised by couchdb-python.
