Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Find a closed API that requires API key as HTTP header
2. Oh noes! Can't enter API key.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Happy data. Zilch.

Tim - Can you provide an example (or more than one) of an API which requires 
the key in the header (and doesn't provide an alternative like YouTube does)?

Another use case for this (or very similar) functionality is the "Accept: " 
header field for specifying data formats.  This is used by, for example, end 
points which can return either RDF or HTML (like rdf.freebase.com) as well as 
other multiformat APIs such as CrossRefs
