RouteNotFoundException [登录] Laravel Sanctum

Question

I am currently learning Laravel and using Sanctum to perform authentication.

I have a route working /register and /login and I am trying to create /me endpoint that's protected using auth:sanctum which as a test just returns the authenticated user.

In my api.php I have the following:

Route::post('/auth/register', [UserController::class, "register"]);

Route::post('/auth/login', [UserController::class, "login"]);

Route::middleware('auth:sanctum')->get('/me', function(){
    return auth()->user();
});

In my UserController class I have the following:

class UserController extends BaseController
{
    use AuthorizesRequests, DispatchesJobs, ValidatesRequests;

    public function register(Request $request)
    {
        $user = User::create([
            'name' => $request['name'],
            'email' => $request['email'],
            'password' => bcrypt($request['password'])
        ]);

        return response([
            'success' => $user->createToken('API Token')->plainTextToken
        ]);
    }

    public function login(Request $request)
    {
        $attr = $request->validate([
            'email' => 'required|string|email|',
            'password' => 'required|string|min:6'
        ]);

        if (!Auth::attempt($attr))
        {
            return response('Credentials not found', 401);
        }

        return response([
            'token' => auth()->user()->createToken('API Token')->plainTextToken
        ]);
    }

    public function logout()
    {
        auth()->user()->tokens()->delete();

        return [
            'message' => 'Tokens Revoked'
        ];
    }
}

The /login and /register routes work fine, however, when I attempt to use the /logout or /me route which is using auth:sanctum middleware, I get the following error:

Symfony\Component\Routing\Exception\RouteNotFoundException
Route [login] not defined.

Everything I've Google'd seem to show that I've implemented it correctly, so I'm not sure what I'm missing.

I managed to figure out the problem with some help from @LessMore.

I think most of the problem the auth.php being wrong. Under config/auth.php, under the api section change the driver from token to session, so it should be as follows:

'guards' => [
        'web' => [
            'driver' => 'session',
            'provider' => 'users',
        ],

        'api' => [
            'driver' => 'session',
            'provider' => 'users',
            'hash' => false,
        ],
    ],

The other thing was I was forgetting to add the Authorization header with the bearer token that is returned on the login and to put Accept application/json header.
