TIL that hugo actually support custom HTTP headers to be use together with getJSON function which means you not anymore limited to just use or call API that have token=xxx on URL parameter anymore. Now you can use some header such as Authorization (example: Bearer, OAuth and more).

The implementation is quite simple just create a dictionary data and put the information inside and bind it together with getJSON as second parameter.

Example

Below is an example for my custom Hugo shortcode to get Malaysia forecast from MET API which require to send custom bearer Authorization on HTTP header for each request

Please take note, this feature only available for released hugo version 0.84.0 and above. Thanks for the fish!
