Hey @Arnel Lamanilao ,

Forge apps do not natively support Basic Auth for authenticating with external APIs. Like,  Forge is designed with security in mind and encourages the use of more secure authentication methods, such as OAuth 2.0, when integrating with external services.
Maybe you could bypass this, but it's definitelly not recommended to use Basic Auth.

I guess you can check if Wazuh supports OAuth 2.0 or another secure auth method, and then configure Forge to use that. 👀

This can maybe help as well: Create OAuth 2.0 credential for service accounts 

But yeah, as Jeroen said, when it comes to Forge, it's maybe recommended to check in with Dev community as they are mainly working with Forge.

Cheers,
Tobi
