I was attempting to set up some powershell scripts to deploy unicorn content and i was running into a strange issue where the Unicorn powershell module’s Unicorn sync request was getting redirected to the Sitecore login page.

Through some debugging i was able to track this down to the fact that another developer had checked in a different shared secret.  Once the shared secret was fixed i had smooth sailing.

Really the take away is always double check your shared secrets whenever there’s a problem with an automated tool.
