Getting JSONDecodeError on bad credentials #390
Description
Trying to delete an object with wrong credentials unexpectedly throws a JSONDecodeError. To reproduce:
- initiate a connector to an existing Infoblox instance, but using wrong credentials,
- call
connector.delete_object("no-matter-what-the-reference")(you might have to call it twice, see below)
Obtained stacktrace:
../../../../venv/lib/python3.12/site-packages/infoblox_client/connector.py:55: in callee

The problematic line seems to be https://github.com/infobloxopen/infoblox-client/blob/master/infoblox_client/connector.py#L707 -- the value of r.content is
b'<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">\n<html><head>\n<title>403 Forbidden</title>\n</head><body>\n<h1>Forbidden</h1>\n<p>You don\'t have permission to access this resource.</p>\n</body></html>\n'
There is some inconsistency in the behaviour -- I only get said stacktrace on a second run. But it is definitely reproducible.
