Saeed, we'd be happy to document additional details and examples for you. I'll try to get something publish next week.
Security schema use cases, like OAuth and Basic Auth, are our next priority. We're currently working on our technical design and will be able to deliver a solution before June 2022. I'll have a better idea of the date once we finish defining that scope. In fact, I'd like to get more customer input on this. I'll email you directly to set up a call.
As the lawyers like me to always remind our readers...
This is a forward looking statement. This is subject to change at any time without notice. The development, release and timing remain at Broadcom's sole discretion.------------------------------

Thank You Kim, for posting this..
The REST API authorization is essential where it should be available with the first release! anyway I can see that you mention that it is possible to do a workaround for OAuth and Basic Auth by using header and in-line code.
Can you explain further how to do that? and provide an example, please?

It is our intent to expand to other languages/platforms, add additional methods, support more parameter characteristics, and provide further enhancements based on user feedback. Please send feedback to me: Kim.Peelman@broadcom.com or post in the Ideas section for Gen.
