  description: >-
    HTTP Basic authentication over HTTPS. The Cliniko API key is supplied as the
    username and the password is left empty (curl: `-u API_KEY:`). Construct the
    header as `Authorization: Basic ` + base64(api_key + ":"). API keys are
    generated per user in Cliniko under "My Info". The shard suffix on the key
    (for example `-uk1`) selects the base host, e.g. https://api.uk1.cliniko.com;
    keys with no suffix belong to the au1 shard. Every request must also send
    `Accept: application/json` and a `User-Agent` header of the form
    `APP_VENDOR_NAME (APP_VENDOR_EMAIL)` with a valid contact email, or requests
    may be automatically blocked.
