Some endpoints that are not related to the users can be used without
the api key changing the Solidus configuration.
Add the instruction to do it.

By default, API keys are only generated for admins, but you can easily customize Solidus to generate them for all users, which is useful for instance if you want users to be able to sign in and manage their profile via the API.

The `API key` is mandatory for each endpoint by default. You can change this configuration [here](https://github.com/solidusio/solidus/blob/master/api/lib/spree/api_configuration.rb#L5) if you want to avoid the default behaviour exposing some endpoints without an API key. An example is the [GET product list](https://solidus.stoplight.io/docs/solidus/08307f3d809e7-list-products).

### Order token

For allowing guests to manage their cart and place their order, you can use the order's guest token. This token is contained in the `guest_token` property of the order, and it allows you to perform certain checkout-related operations on the order such as managing line items, completing the checkout flow etc.
