World Route Service - Invalid Token

[BrianRassier]

Hello -

We have an application that occasionally pings services it's configured for to notify the user about the status of each service.  This seems to work fine for most ArcGIS Online services, by appending the token to the URL if it's a secure service.

However, the world routing service is not working.  When we ping the URL below, a message stating Error 498 (Invalid Token) is returned.  Will the world routing service not allow this type of pinging?  The World Geocoding Service seemed fine with it.  Also - we are able to actually use the routing service, just not ping it with the URL below.

I just found one more piece of insight.  Once a successful route is generated, then these "ping" requests start becoming successful too.  So it almost seems like once we pay for a route, then the token we used for that paid route is able to see the rest endpoint?
