Why is the server returning Unauthenticated?

Question

Laravel

I installed Sanctum as in the documentation:

1. I wrote composer require laravel /sanctum
   
2. Registered php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Laravel\Sanctum\SanctumServiceProvider"
   
3. Registered php artisan migrate
   
4. Added EnsureFrontendRequestsAreStateful to app/Http/Kernel.php
   
5. Updated .env : added SANCTUM_STATEFUL_DOMAINS=localhost and SESSION_DRIVER=cookie
   
6. In the application itself, I make a request to /sanctum/csrf-cookie . Request successful. Cookies have been updated.
   
7. Next, I make a request to /login . Request successful. Cookies have been updated.
   

And when requesting a secure auth:sanctum path, the server kicks me off with a 401 error. What have I done wrong?

Answer 1

Found the reason. It was necessary to register SANCTUM_STATEFUL_DOMAINS along with the port.
