IWS REST APIs have 2 parts ... the App Server and the HTTP Server.
basic auth is handled by the apache http server instance.
See https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/howto/auth.html about basic auth.

There are ways to get more fancy.
The avant garde are moving to placing IBM i APIs behind an API gateway like the open source Apache APISIX<https://apisix.apache.org/>.<https://apisix.apache.org/>
But that's probably for another day 🙂
I have a session Web Application Implementation Patterns for IBM i<https://powerup2024.sched.com/event/1ZnMM/374-web-application-implementation-patterns-for-ibm-i> at COMMON POWERUp in Ft. Worth.
