Thank you for opening this issue! Changes to the REST API schema can be requested in github/rest-api-description. I will transfer your issue over to that open source repo.

👋 @cmwilson21 I'm going to move this back to the docs repository. As far as I can tell, this is not a problem in the schema, this is a problem in the code sample, which is generated by code which is in the docs repository.

Specifically, this part of the sample generator doesn't seem to know about basic authentication, so it just generates auth headers with a token:

@cmwilson21 Ah, seems like I don't have permission to transfer it back to github/docs, not sure why that it. Could I trouble you to do it for me? 🙏 Thanks!
