Header parameter for apikey

Questions
1

Hello,
I see that I can pass a header with apikey to authenticate. Is there a way to change the header param name, so instead of apikey=actual_key I can pass my-api-key=actual_key?

Yes, you can add another name to the plugin default value.

curl -i -X POST --url http://localhost:8001/plugins/ \
                --data "name=key-auth" \
                --data "config.key_names[]=yourApiKeyName"

Thanks, we’ve been exploring it last year but now are in deployment mode :slight_smile:
Is there a way to do the same with the k8s ingress controller?

Yes. You can specify anything in the config block via the Ingress Controller as well.
