You'll probably find it much simpler to use the standard basic auth mechanism, use your transaction id for the login and pass in a dummy password.
You could also play with the Require directive.
Although I've never tried it, and it seems like a really bad idea, it will supposedly accept a Boolean _expression_, so you could try "Require true" or something similar.
In any case, if your transaction IDs can be predicted or brute-forced, this all sounds like a really bad idea.
