Question

Api routes

Route::prefix('v1')->group(function(){
Route::post('login', 'Api\AuthController@login');

Route::group(['middleware' => 'auth:api'], function(){
Route::post('getUser', 'Api\AuthController@getUser');
});

When calling routes that are protected by Passport, your application's API consumers should specify their access token as a Bearer token in the Authorization header of their request. For example, when using the Guzzle HTTP library:

$response = $client->request('GET', '/api/user', [
    'headers' => [
        'Accept' => 'application/json',
        'Authorization' => 'Bearer '.$accessToken,
    ],
]);

$accessToken is the token generated by the api when logging in.

You must submit this token in all requests that require authentication in your API
