I have an angular application that is hitting a node API. Our backend developer has implemented basic auth on the API, and I need to send an auth header in my request.

WORKING EXAMPLE: I have learnt this from @MrZime - Thanks! and Read https://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng/service/$http#setting-http-headers

Latest v1.6.x of NGULARJS as of 2018 MARCH 2nd

        var req = {
            method: 'POST',
            url: 'https://api.losant.com/applications/43fdsf5dfa5fcfe832ree/data/last-value-query',
            headers: {
                'Authorization': 'Bearer ' + 'adsadsdsdYXBpVG9rZW4iLCJzrdfiaWF0IjoxNdfsereOiJZ2V0c3RfdLmlvInfdfeweweFQI-dfdffwewdf34ee0',
                'Accept': 'application/json',
                'Content-Type': 'application/json'
            },
            data: {
                "deviceIds": [
                    "a6fdgdfd5dfqaadsdd5",
                    "azcxd7d0ghghghghd832"
                ],
                "attribute": "humidity"
            }
        }




        $http(req).then(function successCallback(response) {

            $log.log("OK!")
             returnedData = response.data

        }, function errorCallback(response) {

            if (response.status = 401) { // If you have set 401

                $log.log("BAD 401")

            }
            else {

                $log.log("broken at last")

            }
        });

Add it to your.js file and include this your.js in your.html file and look at console panel in debug/F12 on chrome you should get OK status and "returnedData" is what you want in the end. Enjoy the data!
