 HTTP Authorization Header
 *************************
 
+Token Authorization
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
 You need to send the ``Authorization`` header with the token on each HTTP request.
 The header has the form ``Authorization: Token <ACCESS_TOKEN>``.
 For example:
 
 .. prompt:: bash $
 
    curl -H "Authorization: Token 19okmz5k0i6yk17jp70jlnv91v" https://docs.example.com/en/latest/example.html
+
+Basic Authorization
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+You can also use basic authorization, with the token as user and an empty password.
+For example:
+
+.. prompt:: bash $
+
+   curl --url https://docs.example.com/en/latest/example.html --user '19okmz5k0i6yk17jp70jlnv91v:'
