How to properly process JWT in middleware and pass further information from the token to the controllers?

Question

JSON Web Token

Laravel 5.3.
I wrote a middleware to check the token for presence and validity, but I don’t understand how to forward the information from the token further. And is this the correct approach? Tell me please.

Answer 1

Log in to Middleware, get a token, write it to the session or $request (if you need constantly fresh data) and then use it anywhere.
