Why  Accepted Answer  works    but it wasn t enough for me  This works in the specification  At least swagger-tools  version 0 10 1  validates it as a valid    But if you are using other tools like swagger-codegen  version 2 1 6  you will find some difficulties  even if the client generated contains the Authentication definition  like this   this authentications        Bearer    type   apiKey    in    header   name   Authorization        There is no way to pass the token into the header before method endpoint  is called  Look into this function signature   this rootGet   function callback            This means that  I only pass the callback  in other cases query parameters  etc  without a token  which leads to a incorrect build of the request to server   My alternative  Unfortunately  it s not  pretty  but it works until I get JWT Tokens support on Swagger   Note  which is being discussed in   security  add support for Authorization header with Bearer authentication scheme  583 Extensibility of security definitions   460   So  it s handle authentication like a standard header  On path object append an header paremeter   swagger   2 0  info    version  1 0 0   title  Based on  Basic Auth Example    description   gt      An example for how to use Auth with Swagger   host  localhost schemes    - http   - https paths           get        parameters          -            name  authorization           in  header           type  string           required  true       responses           200             description   Will send  Authenticated            403              description   You do not have necessary permissions for the resource    This will generate a client with a new parameter on method signature   this rootGet   function authorization  callback               var headerParams          authorization   authorization                   To use this method in the right way  just pass the  full string       token  and  cb  comes from elsewhere var header    Bearer     token  sdk rootGet header  cb     And works

My Hackie way to solve this was by modifying the swagger go file in the echo-swagger package in my case  At the bottom of the file update the window onload function to include a requestInterceptor which correctly formats the token  window onload   function          Build a system   const ui   SwaggerUIBundle     url   quot    URL   quot     dom id    swagger-ui     validatorUrl  null    presets        SwaggerUIBundle presets apis      SwaggerUIStandalonePreset        plugins        SwaggerUIBundle plugins DownloadUrl       layout   quot StandaloneLayout quot     requestInterceptor   req    gt        req headers Authorization    quot Bearer  quot    req headers Authorization   return req         window ui   ui
