Error when invoking arangoimp in the shell

When I try to invoke arangoimp with the following:

Applications/ArangoDB3-CLI.app/Contents/Resources/arangoimp in my terminal I get the following error:

2018-03-12T11:26:43Z [49366] ERROR Could not connect to endpoint 'tcp://127.0.0.1:8529', database: '_system', username: 'root' 2018-03-12T11:26:43Z [49366] FATAL got error from server: HTTP 401 (Unauthorized)'

I have no idea what am I doing wrong.

HTTP 401 means the specified username and/or password are incorrect for the selected database.

It seems you are using database _system with user root. If you have set a password, you either need to specify it via the option --server.password "your-password-goes-here" or omit it and type it when the ArangoShell prompts. If the password is incorrect, or the user does not exist, then the arangod server will respond with HTTP 401.
