Is there a way to change the name of the realm displayed in the HTTP Basic Credential prompt of an API?

    When adding the Require HTTP Basic Credential and accessing an API with a browser, the authentication prompt that is displayed shows "L7SSGBasicRealm", which gives away that the API is served by CA API Gateway. How can we change that name and can we change it per API or it's a global setting?
