Hi,
I use Passport to create API authentication, it works perfectly for my User authentication! But.. I have Group model and I want to create api token(personal access token i guess) and let this Group manage its resources at its own. I added use HasApiTokens to my Group model and created token by $group->createToken("token")->accessToken but i cant authenticate 'group' in my route - i get response { "message": "Unauthenticated." }.
Am i doing it in good way? How should i achieve it?
@haskell so you want a multi-auth? The User and the Group to be able to use it, or just the Group.
I believe the steps you are missing are setting a custom guard and a custom middleware to handle the checks.
Take a look at this here for multi-auth:
