/api/admin/features
Most of this API was removed in Unleash v5 (after being deprecated since Unleash v4.3). You should use the project-based API (/api/admin/projects/:projectId) instead.
In order to access the admin API endpoints you need to identify yourself. Unless you're using the none
authentication method, you'll need to create an admin token and add an Authorization header using the token.
