How to send common header for auth in flassger (python swagger)

Question

Currently, I am using this type of docstring with Flassger which works fine:

"""End Point to create something
  ---
  parameters:
    - name: body
      in: body
      type: string
      required: true
    - name: token
      in: header
      description: an authorization header
      required: true
      type: string
  responses:
    200:
      description: Some description
  """

And I am able to send the request from ui like this:

enter image description here

But I need to make the token parameter global on this page, so that the user only need to fill this just once. What do I need to do to achieve that?

All you need to do is define the authorization token in the api definitions. Try something like this:

  securityDefinitions:
  Token:
   type: apiKey
   name: Token
   in: header

And then put this code in the endpoint you want to secure with the token:

 security:
 -Token: []

In your example:

  parameters:
  - name: body
   in: body
   type: string
   required: true
   security
   - Token:[]
   responses:
     200:
      description: Some description

If you want to secure all the endpoints with the token do like this:

securityDefinitions:
  Token:
   type: apiKey
   name: Token
   in: header
security
   - Token:[]
