Describe the feature you'd like to see
Ability to set a password in an environment variable file (e.g., .env) and send it in the headers of API requests

Describe alternatives you've considered
Using API tokens or keys instead of passwords.

Additional context
This feature would allow developers to store a API password securely in an environment variable file and send it in the headers of API requests for authentication. It would provide a simple and straightforward way to protect API access without relying on external authentication providers or platform-specific mechanisms.

you do realise that the web part.. has to talk to the api, right? and for it to do that, it has to expose the password to the user, right?

and also, why are you even trying to password protect your instance?
