+# APIKey Header
+
+FastAPI supports using **API keys** as an alternative to OAuth2/JWT.

+
+## 📘 Example
+
+```python
+from fastapi import FastAPI, Security, HTTPException, Depends
+from fastapi.security.api_key import APIKeyHeader
+
+app = FastAPI()
+
+API_KEY = "supersecretapikey"
+api_key_header = APIKeyHeader(name="X-API-Key")
+
+def get_api_key(api_key: str = Security(api_key_header)):
+    if api_key != API_KEY:
+        raise HTTPException(status_code=403, detail="Could not validate API KEY")
+    return api_key
+
+@app.get("/secure-data/")
+def secure_data(api_key: str = Depends(get_api_key)):
+    return {"message": "You have access to secure data!"}
