When selecting API KEY as the auth format, there is no information about how this API key will be used, nor any controls to indicate how it should be used. Is it thrown in a header? if so what key is it put under?

Hi @jcoutu, “API Token” authentication is a standard authentication mechanism where you don’t required to configure any other headers. It just required the API token generated in the managed system and this is specific to the managed system that you are configuring via Web Services Connector.

If there are systems which deviates from the standard authentication and require some additional configuration, you can use the “Custom Authentication”.

Thanks!

I’m sorry if I wasn’t clear. Using API Token in the fashion that you suggest does not work, which was why I needed to read the documentation, which I have found woefully lacking.
