Authentication Most of the time, the API requires authentication. To enable the
API-style authentication, you have to check Enable REST API in Administration
-> Settings -> Authentication. Then, authentication can be done in 2 different
ways:
using your regular login/password via HTTP Basic authentication.
using your API key which is a handy way to avoid putting a password in a
script. The API key may be attached to each request in one of the following way:
passed in as a "key" parameter
passed in as a username with a random password via HTTP Basic authentication
passed in as a "X-Redmine-API-Key" HTTP header (added in Redmine 1.1.0)
You can find your API key on your account page ( /my/account ) when logged in,
on the right-hand pane of the default layout.

According to what you say, it could already work. Just enter your API key in
the username field and add a random password.
I'll need to test this.

I've tested it with filling in the API key in the username field and a random
password.
This works. We could update the title of the field to User name / API Key
