REST - How to use auth token in subsequent requests

Question

I'm using a java application the provide a REST interface for mongodb database called "RESTHeart"

When I make a normal GET request.

http -a admin:temp http://172.18.18.122:8080/_logic/roles/admin

I get an auth token Auth-Token: 10dc2eeb-9624-47f2-a542-c97e0af82b23, how can I use it subsequent requests?

Here is the full response

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
    Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
    Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
    Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Location, ETag, Auth-Token, Auth-Token-Valid-Until, Auth-Token-Location, X-Powered-By
    Auth-Token: 10dc2eeb-9624-47f2-a542-c97e0af82b23
    Auth-Token-Location: /_authtokens/admin

    {
        "_links": {
            "self": {
                "href": "/_logic/roles/admin"
            }
        },
        "authenticated": true,
        "roles": [
            "ADMIN"
        ]
    }

I have tried the following:

http http://172.18.18.122:8080/_logic/roles/admin Auth-Token:'10dc2eeb-9624-47f2-a542-c97e0af82b23' 

Response:

HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden
Access-Control-Allow-Credentials: true
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Access-Control-Expose-Headers: Location, ETag, Auth-Token, Auth-Token-Valid-Until, Auth-Token-Location, X-Powered-By

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong here, any ideas?

with httpie you can simply do:

http -a <username>:<Auth-Token> GET http://172.18.18.122:8080/auth/users
