Laravel passport route without middleware, how to get authorized user?

Question

Laravel

I want to create an API for my application but I have a problem with the route.

I have the ability to add a link and I have a condition: if the user is authorized, the user's id is written, if not authorized, his u_id is written.

All this is sent to the same router, but here's the problem:

Route:: post('/link-store', ['as' = > 'api.link', 'uses' = > 'Api\[email protected]']);

here is my router and i send a request to it as authorized user but on
dd(\Auth()->user())
i get null If i do this:

Route::

middleware('auth:api')->group( function () { Route::post('/link-store', ['as' => 'api.link', 'uses' => 'Api\[email protected]']); });

then I can't access the route if I'm not authorized. What should I do? I used Laravel Passport.

Make an intermediate route.
Let users with uuid follow it, and if there is one, authorize it manually and redirect it to the desired route with the auth:api middleware
