Do you mean something like this?

fetch('https://mywebsite.com/endpoint/', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {
    Accept: 'application/json',
    'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    Key: 'sdsfdsfsdf3343' <------------ Put your key here?
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    firstParam: 'yourValue',
    secondParam: 'yourOtherValue',
  }),
});

I depends on what you want at the backend side, normally I send something like: `Authorization: Bear yourJwtToken` in the header – Andus Feb 18 '20 at 02:50
at this say it should be in authorization headers https://stackoverflow.com/a/5518085/5097662 – Mangrio Feb 18 '20 at 02:56
