Web Api How to add a Header parameter for all API in Swagger

Question

I searched for possible ways to add a request header parameter that would be added automatically to every method in my web-api but i couldn't find a clear one.

While searching i found that the method OperationFilter() has to do something about it.

What the user "G T" wrote is correct but it is not working with Swagger 5. We have some new changes:

From: Operation to: OpenApiOperation

From: IParameter to: OpenApiParameter

From: NonBodyParameter to: OpenApiParameter, and the most important is...

From: Type = "string" to: Schema = new OpenApiSchema { Type = "String" }

using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Authorization;
using Microsoft.OpenApi.Any;
using Microsoft.OpenApi.Models;
using Swashbuckle.AspNetCore.SwaggerGen;
namespace MyAPI
{
    public class AuthorizationHeaderParameterOperationFilter: IOperationFilter
    {
        public void Apply(OpenApiOperation operation, OperationFilterContext context)
        {
            var filterPipeline = context.ApiDescription.ActionDescriptor.FilterDescriptors;
            var isAuthorized = filterPipeline.Select(filterInfo => filterInfo.Filter).Any(filter => filter is AuthorizeFilter);
            var allowAnonymous = filterPipeline.Select(filterInfo => filterInfo.Filter).Any(filter => filter is IAllowAnonymousFilter);

            if (isAuthorized && !allowAnonymous)
            {
                if (operation.Parameters == null)
                    operation.Parameters = new List<OpenApiParameter>();

                operation.Parameters.Add(new OpenApiParameter 
                {
                    Name = "Authorization",
                    In = ParameterLocation.Header,
                    Description = "access token",
                    Required = true,
                    Schema = new OpenApiSchema
                    {
                        Type = "String",
                        Default = new OpenApiString("Bearer ")
                    }
                });
            }
        }
    }
}

And in Startup => ConfigureServices => services.AddSwaggerGen()

c.OperationFilter<AuthorizationHeaderParameterOperationFilter>();
