My pusher does not support custom HTTP headers

Reviewed on July 22, 2025

Before you start

To complete the actions presented below, you must have:

Owner status or IAM permissions allowing you to perform actions in the intended Organization

If your pusher does not support the X-Token header, there are other ways to pass it:

Through the X-Scope-OrgID header. This means that when using Promtail, you can set the tenant_id field of the client's configuration to pass the token.
Through the Authorization: Bearer <token> header. This is for all clients who usually have support for these bearer tokens.
Through the Authorization: Basic header. With basic authentication, you will have to use the token as a password with any username.

Important

If none of these methods were successful, reach out to us on the #observability channel on Slack.
