I'm using reqwest = { version = "0.11", features = ["json"] }

impl Client {
    pub fn new(/*endpoint: Url*/) -> Result<Client> {
        Ok(Client {
            client: reqwest::ClientBuilder::new().build()?,
        })
    }
}

let res = self
    .client
    .post(url)
    .header("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
    .header("Authorization", "Basic".to_owned() + &secret)
    .send
    .await?;
let data = res.json::<Response>().await?;

I'm not able to set the basic authorization header, and the code gives the error "Missing auth credentials".

As suggested from above comments, added the missing space after "Basic" in the header, solved this problem.

let res = self
    .client
    .post(url)
    .header("Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded")
    .header("Authorization", "Basic ".to_owned() + &secret)
    .send()
    .await?;
