[ImadBoumzaoued]

Hello sorry to make this an issue, I've tried to make this work

Exposes setToken function to $axios so we can easily and globally set authentication tokens.

but without any luck can you please explain how to make it work form a store mutation.

Thanks a lot

Hi. Sorry for currently lack of it's documentation. Actually i've just left it until auth module is ready. For setting authentication token, anywhere that you have access to $axios (see docs) can call like this:

// This will add `Authentication: Bearer ....`  header to all requests
$axios.setToken('Token from API or Cookies', 'Bearer')

Hey thanks for the reply, I don't know what I'm doing wrong but when I do it like this

this.$axios.setToken(token, false)

I get setToken is not a function, knowing that this.$axios.post is working

Hmm i can't test now but seems it should be attached to prototype instead until bug resolved please use an alternative like this: $axios.defaults.headers.common.Authorization= toekn

Ok I'll use the alternative solution.
Thanks a lot :)

@kaungmyatlwin can you give example using nuxt/auth module for external API authentication with custom function.
