### 📄 Description
# Changelog Entry
### Description
- Docling expects API keys for authorization in the header under `X-Api-Key`, not as as an `Authorization` bearer. Allows changes for #16841 to work properly.
See https://github.com/docling-project/docling-serve/blob/main/docs/configuration.md
### Fixed
- Changes the header type used in requests when an API key is provided for Docling from `Authorization` to `X-Api-Key`
