My Authorization Token is not recognized by AppApi.

In some cases the server config does block Authentication Headers by default. Try adding the following line to your .htaccess file:

RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]

In other cases it helped to add the following line:

SetEnvIf Authorization "(.*)" HTTP_AUTHORIZATION=$1

I really want to avoid having to set a header for the apikey.

If you want to include an image from the api using the standard <img src=""> tag, it can be very difficult to include the api key and a token as headers. However, it is possible to include these values as GET parameters. The GET parameter with the apikey is called api_key. A token can be sent as parameter authorization.

Disclaimer: I recommend to use this solution only for this exceptional case. Generally headers are the better and more elegant solution.
