i tried passing string ws_key , keyvalue , called url http://keyvalue@domain.com/api/namehere

but doesn't work too. please assist.

i know it's old question, think can help.

check .htaccess file. should has lines these:

rewriterule . - [e=rewritebase:/] rewriterule .* - [e=http_authorization:%{http:authorization}] rewriterule ^api$ api/ [l]  rewriterule ^api/(.*)$ %{env:rewritebase}webservice/dispatcher.php?url=$1 [qsa,l] 

the second line tell apache how process authorization.
