Setting up Swagger (ASP.NET Core) using the Authorization headers (Bearer)

Question

I have a Web API (ASP.NET Core) and I am trying to adjust the swagger to make the calls from it. The calls must contains the Authorization header and I am using Bearer authentication. The calls from third party apps like Postman, etc. go fine. But I am having the issue with setting up the headers for swagger (for some reason I don't receive the headers). This is how it looks like now:

  "host": "localhost:50352",
  "basePath": "/" ,
  "schemes": [
    "http",
    "https"
  ],
 "securityDefinitions":  {
    "Bearer": {
      "name": "Authorization",
      "in": "header",
      "type": "apiKey",
      "description": "HTTP/HTTPS Bearer"
    }
  },
  "paths": { 
    "/v1/{subAccountId}/test1": {
      "post": {
        "tags": [
          "auth"
        ],
        "operationId": "op1",
        "consumes": ["application/json", "application/html"],
        "produces": ["application/json", "application/html"],
        "parameters": [
          {
            "name": "subAccountId",
            "in": "path",
            "required": true,
            "type": "string"
          }
        ],
        "security":[{
          "Bearer": []
        }],
        "responses": {
          "204": {
            "description": "No Content"
          },
          "400": {
            "description": "BadRequest",
            "schema": {
              "$ref": "#/definitions/ErrorResponse"
            }
          },
          "401": {
            "description": "Unauthorized",
            "schema": {
              "$ref": "#/definitions/ErrorResponse"
            }
          },
          "500": {
            "description": "InternalServerError",
            "schema": {
              "$ref": "#/definitions/ErrorResponse"
            }
          }
        },
        "deprecated": false
      }
    },

First of all, you can use Swashbuckle.AspNetCore nuget package for auto generating your swagger definition. (tested on 2.3.0)

After you've installed package, setup it in Startup.cs in method ConfigureServices

services.AddSwaggerGen(c => {
    c.SwaggerDoc("v1", new Info { Title = "You api title", Version = "v1" });
    c.AddSecurityDefinition("Bearer",
        new ApiKeyScheme { In = "header",
          Description = "Please enter into field the word 'Bearer' following by space and JWT", 
          Name = "Authorization", Type = "apiKey" });
    c.AddSecurityRequirement(new Dictionary<string, IEnumerable<string>> {
        { "Bearer", Enumerable.Empty<string>() },
    });

});

Then you can use Authorize button at the top right of the page.

At least you can try to use this package to generate valid swagger definition
