Call make.com Webhook with authentication via make.com HTTP

Hi,
I’ve set up a webhook as trigger for scenario a.

In scenario b I would like to call this webhook via HTTP GET.

This is working fine but I did not figure out how to set the up key authentication.

Can someone describe which module I need and how to set it up?

This is what I tried so far: I always get 401 (unauthorized)

HTTP - Basic Auth Request:

HTTP - Api Key Auth Request:

Hi,

If I understand your request correctly, you can use an HTTP request without any authentication.
If you would like to increase the security level, you can define an API key in the webhook and call it using this key.

Hope this helps,

Hi,
calling the Webhook works, bot only without authentication.

I did not figure out which HTTP module I need and how to configure it when authentication is enabled.
I thought the module “Make an API Key Auth request” is the one I need (second screenshot above).
I’ve selected the correct API Key but always received error 401 “unauthenticated”.

Thanks

In Make’s Webhook you can define an API key (hit Add API Key link)
In HTTP Make a request you should add “x-make-apikey“ and it’s value to the header of the request:

Hope it helps:)
