HTTP 100 Continue vs 401 Unauthorized
HTTP 100 (Continue) is a 1xx Informational response, while 401 (Unauthorized) is a 4xx Client Error response. 100 indicates that the server has received the request headers and the client should proceed to send the request body. This lets the client know it can continue with the request or abort if the headers were rejected. In contrast, 401 means that the request requires user authentication. The response includes a WWW-Authenticate header indicating the authentication scheme.
