headers in https requests

Hi guys, I would like to add a header to my https.get() request in order to use my auth token for the api that I am using but I am not sure how I would add a header and I haven't found much documentation on this topic online.

If you are referring to a JWT, the header is "Authorization" : "Bearer eyZssoeuhtaosgeq120835rtwsliafusgsda...."
