How to Properly Set the Authorization Header in Axios with Laravel Passport Authentication in Vue.js

When you’re working with Laravel Passport for authentication in a Vue.js application, managing your Authorization headers can sometimes feel tricky. Developers often run into issues where the Authorization header is missing during API calls, leading to errors and confusion.

The Problem

You’ve dispatched a login action but noticed that subsequent API requests within your Vue components, like QuestionIndex, don’t include the required Authorization header. While refreshing the page might solve this temporarily, you need a more stable and efficient way to handle authentication tokens.

Common Issues You Might Face:

The Authorization header is not present in the Axios request.

You find yourself manually setting the header in multiple components, which isn’t efficient or scalable.

The Solution

To ensure your Authorization header is set correctly for all Axios requests, the best practice involves using an Axios instance with request interceptors. Here’s how you can implement it step by step.

Step 1: Create an Axios Instance

Instead of directly using the default Axios instance, you will create a custom one where you can set default headers and handle authorization tokens. Here's how to do it:

Step 2: Use Your Axios Instance in Vuex Store

Now that you have your Axios instance set up to automatically include the Authorization header, you must ensure you use this instance in your Vuex store.

Step 3: Ensure Correct Import Statements

Make sure that in your login.vue component (or wherever you are dispatching the login action), you are dispatching the action correctly:

By ensuring that you use axiosInstance instead of the default Axios import in your Vuex store actions, you will avoid missing headers in your requests.

Conclusion

By following the steps outlined above, you should have a robust solution for managing your Authorization headers in a Vue.js application using Laravel Passport. This approach not only eliminates the issue of missing headers but also keeps your code clean and maintainable.

With a properly configured Axios instance and well-managed state in Vuex, you can enhance authentication handling in your application effectively.

Now that you understand the process, try implementing this in your own projects and see how it works for you!
