Describe the background of your feature request
Many services make use of API-Keys for authentication purposes. Even heimdall has support for many different authentication mechanisms, it currently lacks support for API-Keys
Describe your idea
As the title sais, support for API-key based authentication would be helpful
Are there any workarounds or alternatives?
Not really. One could make use of JWT tokens for API keys, but that implies, the verification of these using keys from the corresponding jwks source. With API-keys, one would like to match the actual values.
