# Using the session

`GET /v1/example1`

Once you have logged in, to use your session token to authenticate with any action, supply it in a request header `Authorization` with a value of `Bearer {token}`, as seen here.

_(There is not really anything at `/v1/example1`; this section only demonstrates how generally to use Session Bearer Token Authentication.)_

## Headers

- `Authorization` string, required

## Response `200`

OK

- Success
  - `success` boolean, required
