HTTP Auth Credentials

HTTP auth credentials cover common header-based authentication for backend APIs.

Supported patterns​

  • Bearer token
  • Basic auth (username and password)
  • API key in custom header

Setup steps​

  1. Create a credential with type HTTP Auth.
  2. Select auth pattern.
  3. Enter required values.
  4. Attach to collection or workflow node.

Practical guidance​

  • Use separate credentials per environment.
  • Rotate tokens and passwords on schedule.
  • Avoid embedding secrets in proxy headers when credential mapping is available.
