Splunk Add-on Builder: How to resolve "[ERROR] - [test] The response status=403" error while testing REST API?

I have followed the walkthrough to add a NY Times app to Splunk and that works fine as documented here :

http://dev.splunk.com/view/addon-builder/SP-CAAAFCD

I have tried similar using the Guardian API - i get the following issue when running the test on the 'edit data input' page ..

2017-04-21 01:57:53,716 - test_theguardian - [ERROR] - [test] The response status=403 for request which url=https://content.guardianapis.com/search?q=monaco&api-key=XXX and method=GET.

So went to cmd line and that failed - but i resolved this by adding '' around the URI like so :

*** SNIPPET ***
