Here, I will show you how to override REST authentication, so you can create your custom authentication.

• Create a di.xml file :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 <config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:ObjectManager/etc/config.xsd">

   <preference for="Magento\Webapi\Controller\Rest" type="Webnexs\Training\Controller\Rest"/>

 </config>

• After that, create a file to handle the rewrite.

<?php

 namespace Webnexs\Training\Controller;

 use Magento\Framework\Exception\AuthorizationException;

 use Magento\Framework\Webapi\Rest\Request as RestRequest;

 use Magento\Framework\Webapi\Rest\Response as RestResponse; use Magento\Framework\Webapi\Rest\Response\FieldsFilter;

 use Magento\Webapi\Controller\Rest\Router;

 class Rest extends \Magento\Webapi\Controller\Rest

 {

   protected function checkPermissions()

  {

    //Todo

   }

 }

Write the code to check the //Todo.

After that refresh the cache to make it work.
