### Description
ipfs/kubo#2389
Is there a way to connect to an authenticated API from the WebUI?
It seems the WebUI only accepts an URL or a Multiaddress without any possibility to customize the `Authorization` header
Maybe there should be a way to put the authorization into the URL via path or query parameters?
Thanks
