The Concept to use here would be Middleware: To get you started, put this in your API-Controller's ctors:

public function __construct()
{
    // reqires Authentificataion before access
    $this->middleware('auth.basic');
}

Your app should then be able to call the resources like

http://user:[email protected]/yourresource/1
