User Authentication

Introduction

The user authentication API requests using username and password headers. By following these instructions, developers can ensure secure communication with the API server.

How It Works

The user authentication works by sending a username and password in the HTTP request header. The server challenges the client with a 401 Unauthorized response, indicating that authentication is required. The client then includes the username and password in the Authorization header of subsequent requests.

Headers

Key Value
username your-username
password your-password

Example

Here’s an example using cURL:

curl -X GET \
  -H "username: your-username" \
  -H "password: your-password" \
  https://api.example.com/resource

Here’s an example using Python:

import requests

api_url = 'https://api.example.com/resource'

# Make an authenticated GET request
headers = {
    'username': 'your-username',
    'password': 'your-password',
}

response = requests.get(api_url, headers=headers)
