- name: BasicAuth
  type: http
  scheme: basic
  status: deprecated
  notes: >-
    API v1 only — username:password credentials sent Base64-encoded in the
    Authorization header. Deprecated; the docs direct existing Basic users to
    request an API key. The v1 /rfq/pool endpoint currently only supports
    Basic Authentication (use Pool V2 for API key auth).
