description: Monocrawl authenticates with a single API key sent on each request. The key goes in the `x-api-key` request header. Some clients
  can also use the same key as a Bearer token in the `Authorization` header for GET requests.
schemes:
- type: http-bearer
  name: Bearer Token
  evidence: Some clients only expose an Authorization field. The same key works there as a Bearer token on GET /v1, GET /sandbox and /mcp.
  location: header
  header: Authorization
  how_to_obtain: Use the same API key as a Bearer token; obtain the key as described for the API key.
note: There are no OAuth flows, per‑platform credentials, or token refresh mechanisms. 1 extracted row(s) were dropped because their quote was
