Basic authentication for custom action API header

[tdhi]

I’m having problems with my custom action, cannot get past a HTTP Basic authentication header error on an API.

I thought I correctly formatted the syntax for the base64 ID plus password with colon. I’m wondering if this type of authentication is not supported in the current custom action?

My header looks like this:

Authorization
Basic test_idstring:

Can you give some further info on this without me diving in to their docs fully?

I have used basic auth successfully on Adalo several times. I used this site to generate the base64 code: Basic Authentication Header Generator

Thanks @anon78309838 I wasn’t aware I needed to encode the Test API Key. Rookie mistake. The generator solved my problem.
