Basic auth is very simple, and we can easily implement this in our apex code.

In this integration method, The server requires users’ credentials in the form of a base64 encoded string in the Authorization header. 

Code :

BasicAuth.cls :

public class BasicAuth{

	public void CallBasicAuth(){
		//use for send request
		Http http = new Http();
		// use for set all parameter 
		HttpRequest req = new HttpRequest();
		String endpoint = 'https://www.myurl.com/endpoint'
		req.setEndpoint(endpoint);
		req.setMethod('POST');
		req.setHeader('Content-Type','application/text'); 

		String username = 'Username';
		String password = 'Password';
		// convert in Blob
        Blob headerValue = Blob.valueOf(username + ':' + password);
        String authorizationHeader = 'BASIC ' +EncodingUtil.base64Encode(headerValue);
        req.setHeader('Authorization', authorizationHeader);

		// HTTPResponse to get response from send request
		HTTPResponse res = http.send(req);
		System.debug('Response Status Code==> '+res.getStatusCode());
		System.debug('Response Status==> '+res.getStatus());
		
		if(res.getStatusCode() == 201 || res.getStatusCode() == 200){
			System.debug('Response Body==> 'res.getBody());
		}else{
			//handler error
		}
