Auth

The Auth tab offers Inherit, None, Bearer token, Basic, API key (in a header or the query) and OAuth 2.0.

Inherit uses the nearest folder that has auth of its own, then the collection’s (which starts as None). To give a folder its own auth, right-click it and choose Folder Auth….

Faded “auto” rows on the Headers and Params tabs show what the auth will add. A header or parameter you set yourself with the same name wins.

A value that is only a {{variable}} is saved in the file. Any other value goes to your system keychain.

Pasting a curl command with -u or an Authorization header turns it into the request’s auth.
