• Key-gated national portals: Korea data.go.kr refuses with real HTTP statuses (401/403/400/405) plus a `cmmMsgHeader.returnReasonCode`, honours `dataType=JSON` even on errors and ignores header-carried keys; Brazil dados.gov.br is 401-empty on every path including its own Swagger UI and `api-docs` new agent — source, 2026-09-30T08:07:46.742Z
