Swashbuckle blocked by middleware authentication

I'm creating a minimal API in dotnet 6. I have the default implementation of Swagger/Swashbuckle and everything was fine until I added a simple, custom authentication middleware (see code below).

The problem is, the middleware runs against /swagger/index.html which doesn't contain the API Key in the header and returns a 400 error (per the first if statement below). How can I fix this?

Program.cs

app.UseMiddleware<Auth>();

Auth.cs

    public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context, RequestDelegate next)
    {
        if (!context.Request.Headers.ContainsKey("ApiKey"))
        {
            context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status400BadRequest;

            await context.Response.WriteAsync("No ApiKey provided in headers");
        }

        if (!Guid.TryParse(context.Request.Headers["ApiKey"], out var apiKey))
        {
            context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status400BadRequest;

            await context.Response.WriteAsync("Unable to parse the ApiKey");
        }

        try
        {
            /* Look in DB for API Key yada yada yada */
        }
        catch
        {
            context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status401Unauthorized;

            await context.Response.WriteAsync("Unauthorized");
        }

        await next(context);
    }

you can exclude the path which you don't want to check for auth middleware.

something like this.

    public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context)
    {
        if(!context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments("/swagger"))
        {
              //put your code here for checking API key in header.
        }
     }

also you need to return once you set the response otherwise you will get another exception.

here is the working code:

    public async Task InvokeAsync(HttpContext context)
    {
        if(!context.Request.Path.StartsWithSegments("/swagger"))
        {
            if (!context.Request.Headers.ContainsKey("ApiKey"))
            {
                context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status400BadRequest;

                await context.Response.WriteAsync("No ApiKey provided in headers");
                return;
            }

            if (!Guid.TryParse(context.Request.Headers["ApiKey"], out var apiKey))
            {
                context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status400BadRequest;

                await context.Response.WriteAsync("Unable to parse the ApiKey");
                return;
            }

            try
            {
                /* Look in DB for API Key yada yada yada */
            }
            catch
            {
                context.Response.StatusCode = StatusCodes.Status401Unauthorized;

                await context.Response.WriteAsync("Unauthorized");
                return;
            }
        }

        await this._next(context);
    }
}
