Default Value

"Basic"

Remarks

This property lets you choose how the cmdlet authenticates using your APIToken. You can set it to either Bearer or Basic.

• If set to Basic (default), both a User and an APIToken are required. The cmdlet uses them to authenticate using the Basic authentication scheme.
• If set to Bearer, the cmdlet sends the token using the Bearer authentication scheme. If a User is also provided, it is included in the token format automatically.

This property is useful when connecting to services that support multiple token formats, such as the miniOrange REST API Authentication app.
