Missing authentication field in headers to store cookie expressjs - node.js

Question

I'm trying to login with cookie JWT HTTPOnly, the problem is that the cookie comming with the response to the server, is comming in a field named 'cookie' and I would liked to have the cookie in a field named 'authorization' with a type 'Bearer' token. I'm using axios as client...
This is how the headers coming from my browser looks like...
{ host: 'localhost:8000',
connection: 'keep-alive',
accept: 'application/json, text/plain, */*',
origin: 'http://localhost:8080',
'user-agent':
'Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/74.0.3729.169 Safari/537.36',
referer: 'http://localhost:8080/allusers',
'accept-encoding': 'gzip, deflate, br',
'accept-language': 'pt-PT,pt;q=0.9,en-US;q=0.8,en;q=0.7',
cookie:
'jwt=eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpZCI6IjVkNzE2ODI4NjE4ZjllMTQzYzY2NjIwNSIsImlhdCI6MTU2ODEwNzkxMSwiZXhwIjoxNTcwNjk5OTExfQ.cq85nqtLlw4npP53_3x-YxhXvapsm9qXKgOH0RCkLIM' }
this is how a send my cookie JWT
const token = jwt.sign({
id: user._id
},
process.env.JWT_SECRET, {
expiresIn: process.env.JWT_EXPIRES_IN
}
);
const cookieOptions = {
expires: new Date(
Date.now() + process.env.JWT_COOKIE_EXPIRES_IN * 24 * 60 *
60 * 1000
),
httpOnly: true
};
res.cookie('jwt', token, cookieOptions);

Answer 1

Instead of doing res.cookie('jwt', token, cookieOptions);
You could try using the standard response header.
You can set a header field to a value of your choosing:
res.set('Content-Type', 'text/plain');
Or set your own:
res.set(field, [value]);
I hope this helps!
Also maybe let the server make JWT keys in the future. That is how most people do it.
