Hi, im getting this error when testing queries in the Discovery Service at my-ip:18381

Is this supposed to happen? I´m not having error in my open edx search but i wanted to check if this is a normal behaviour:

Maybe you found your answer but for all newcomers to this QA,first check the API calls . in my case it was happened because I didn’t login as superuser to discovery service. to do that follow these:

- tutor:  
if you use tutor for deploying the opened just `exec` in the discovery container and create a superuser
- devstack:  
if so, follow the [opendx discovery docs](https://edx-discovery.readthedocs.io/en/latest/introduction.html#creating-accessing-the-discovery-service-django-admin)  
After creating the user,just login to admin page and rerun your queries.hope the best
