{}1150basicAuth
Basic authentication
Optional HTTP basic authentication credentials.
Quickwit itself has no authentication layer, so this is only needed when the cluster sits behind a reverse proxy or an API gateway that enforces basic auth.

Password for HTTP basic authentication.
Username
Username for HTTP basic authentication.

Custom HTTP headers
Headers sent on every request, for example an Authorization: Bearer ... token or a gateway API key.
Quickwit itself has no authentication layer, so this is only needed when the cluster sits behind an API gateway that injects credentials.

A commit=force ingest or a large search may legitimately take a while, so raise it when needed.
