Request Headers:
Request headers are a set of key-value pairs that are sent along with an HTTP request to provide additional information about the request to the server. They are used to specify the client's capabilities, the desired content formats, authentication credentials, and other relevant details. Request headers are essential for enabling efficient and secure communication between clients and servers.
Current available Authentication Credentials and therefore Methods are:
- Basic Auth: Basic authentication is a simple authentication scheme that uses a username and password pair to authenticate the client. The credentials are encoded in Base64 and sent in the Authorization header.
- Custom Custom authentication refers to any authentication scheme that is not standardized. It typically involves sending a custom header with a specific name and value that the server recognizes as valid authentication credentials.
