From your example it seems that you are accessing some API which requires authentication through the email and password. The 401 Unauthorized is simply saying that the remote server was for some reason unable to authenticate the user with the bination of email and password and possibly the vendor_identifier that you sent with the request.

Chances are that the API expects the username (email) and password in the form of Basic Authentication in the Authorization HTTP header. If you are using JQuery >= 1.7.2 then it will create the Authorization header for you.

see this question: How to use Basic Auth with jQuery and AJAX?

$(document).ready(function(){
  $("button").click(function(){
    $.ajax({
    url: 'url_path',
      data: { 
      user : {
        email : $('#email').val(), 
        password : $('#password').val()
      },
      vendor_identifier : '3231-43423-fdsdfs'
    },
    username: $('#email').val(),
    password: $('#password').val(),
    dataType: 'jsonp',
    success: function(msg) {
    var msg = $.parseJSON(msg);
    console.log(msg);
  }
});
