Francesco Chicchiriccò commented on OLINGO-705:
-----------------------------------------------
{{ODataRequest#addCustomHeader}} is for adding entries to {{ODataHeaders}},
e.g. for OData-specific request / response headers.
For other general purpose headers (like {{Authorization}} as in your case), the
idea is to work at HTTP client level; some facilities are provided by default,
as for your (very common indeed) use case:
{code:java}
ODataClient client = ODataClientFactory.getClient();
client.getConfiguration().setHttpClientFactory(new
BasicAuthHttpClientFactory("username", "password"));
EdmMetadataRequest metadataRequest =
client.getRetrieveRequestFactory().getMetadataRequest(serviceRoot);
ODataRetrieveResponse<Edm> metadataRespose = metadataRequest.execute();
Edm edm = metadataRespose.getBody();
{code}
You can take a look at integration tests to see further possibilities

with authentication / autorization

> Project: Olingo
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: odata4-client
> Affects Versions: (Java) V4 4.0.0-beta-03
> Reporter: Ramesh Reddy
> Priority: Critical
>
> I am trying to add "Authorization" header for retrieving $metadata on the
> service that is secured though HTTPBasic. The following code fails with 401.
> {code}
> EdmMetadataRequest metadataRequest =
> client.getRetrieveRequestFactory().getMetadataRequest(serviceRoot);
> metadataRequest.addCustomHeader("Authorization", "Basic
> dXNlcjpyZWRoYXQxIQ==");
> ODataRetrieveResponse<Edm> metadataRespose = metadataRequest.execute();
> Edm edm = metadataRespose.getBody();
> {code}
> While debugging through the code, I found out that the header is never set on
> the request object. The same worked on the "ODataEntitySetIteratorRequest",
> but I suggest verify this on all the requests.
