Hi everybody !
I'm using nextJS 13 and i have a route in my /api backend. I want to secure my route so no one can call it other than my app. I test with cron-job.org, free cron manager.
I can add an http auth with my cron and adding an username and password. How can i implemente that in my app after ? I don't know, if somebody can help me a little..
I send a screen of all possibility :
Thanks ♥

what do you mean by
my app ?you should not trust 100% cron-job.com or something. especially it is free, your api-key could be exposed. just open one endpoint with an api-key with IP filter if they have.
use Auth.js if my app means the Next.js app.
my app : The website i create with nextJS 13 haha.
Hmm okay, but if i can't use a free cron, how can i setup a cron each hour to call an endpoint ? Vercel propose some cron, but is not free.. i saw mergent have free cron per month too

yeah it’s trade off. it’s your call.
You think mergent is better ? 1000 cron each month, i need around 800 each month ^^
thx for helping, have a good day
