I'm try to pass the 'token_mailchimp' from axios get request to nodejs request get
For the moment i pass the auth token from a variable directly in app.js in my node/express project.
app.js in node/express project
app.get('/mailchimp/campaigns', checkAuth, function (req, res) {
request
.get('https://' + mailchimpInstance + '.api.mailchimp.com/3.0/campaigns')
.set('Content-Type', 'application/json;charset=utf-8')
.set('Authorization', 'Basic '+token_mailchimp)
.end((err, result) => {
if (err) {
res.status(500).json(err);
} else {
res.json(result.body);
}
});
});
axios get request in ReactJS project
.get('http://localhost:8081/mailchimp/campaigns',
{ headers: {"Authorization" : `Bearer `+jwt_token} })
.then(({ data })=> {
this.setState({
campaigns: data.campaigns
});
})
.catch((err)=> {})
How can i pass from axios request the auth token for the request /mailchimp/campaigns?
You can send a new custom header like x-api-token
{ headers: {"Authorization" : Bearer+jwt_token, "x-api-token" : "your_token"} }
Then in the app.js, access the headers from the request,
const {headers} = req;
Then use that in your API request
.set('Authorization',`Basic ${headers["x-api-token"]}`)
Note: If you are using cors plugin then make sure it's allowing that header to pass.
You can add header x-api-token manually in cors configuration if needed.

I am invoking a web service through an azure function in node.js with Axios, I have a couple of questions here.
1- in the body of this request I'm hardcoding the value for appUser. however, if I want to run this request on postman and pass the JSON value in the body for appUserwhat changes do I need to do in the code so the param value can pick up what is being passed.
2- the response for this request is only returned in the console of the editor but not getting sent to the client response body (i.e. postman) any idea how to forward the response?
module.exports = async function () {
const axios = require("axios");
const data = {
appUser: "yamen",
};
const headers = {
Authorization:
"Basic WUFNkVQRDg9",
};
{
axios
.post(
"https://tegossl/GetAppUser?company=Enva",
data,
{ headers: headers }
)
.then((response) => {
console.log(`Status: ${response.status}`);
console.log("data: ", response.data);
})
.catch((err) => {
console.error(err);
});
}
};
I am trying to set up a simple login system for a small project. I have managed to connect the website to an login api hosted locally via mysql database.
I'm using express/nodejs on backend and Vue for front end. Also using axios to send http requests.
The error i get is POST http://localhost:3001/api/get-user 422 (Unprocessable Entity)
"{"message":"Please provide the token"}"
Client side part of code.
finally{
const auth = await axios.post(`/api/get-user`, {
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.Token}`
}
})
}
Server side part.
router.post('/get-user', signupValidation, (req, res, next) => {
if(
!req.headers.authorization ||
!req.headers.authorization.startsWith('Bearer') ||
!req.headers.authorization.split(' ')[1]
){
return res.status(422).json({
message: "Please provide the token",
});
}
const theToken = req.headers.authorization.split(' ')[1];
const decoded = jwt.verify(theToken, 'the-super-strong-secrect');
db.query('SELECT * FROM users where id=?', decoded.id, function (error, results, fields) {
if (error) throw error;
return res.send({ error: false, data: results[0], message: 'Fetch Successfully.' });
});
});
I have put a base URL.
The login is working 100% and I am able to extract the token from the response data.
I used Postman to send the request to the server to get the user and it works perfectly. I believe the issue is in the code of the client side or maybe the client side is sending the token incorrectly where the server side cant read it... I'm not sure please help.
The second parameter in axios post is the body
finally{
const auth = await axios.post(`/api/get-user`,{}, {
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.Token}`
}
})
}
I use nextjs API Routes to connect to an external API
when I use a POST request to send a file, the file doesn't handled correctly in API Routes and I get 422 Unprocessable Entity Error
when I send only text it's OK, but when I add a file this error occur.
my request
const data = new FormData();
data.append('first_name', firstName);
data.append('last_name', lastName);
data.append('phone_number', phoneNumber);
image && data.append('avatar', image);
axios.post(`${API_ROUTE}`, data, {
headers: {
'Content-Type': 'multipart/form-data'
}
})
.then(res=>{
alert(JSON.stringify(res.data, null, 2));
})
my API Route
const config = {
headers: {
'Content-Type': req.headers['content-type']
}
};
axios.post(address, req.body, config)
.then(r=>{
res.statusCode = 200
res.json( r.data )
})
.catch(err=>{
res.json(err)
})
in the request that API Route sending to the external API, there are some ? in the content of the file, but in the request that sending from browser to the API Route seems there are different characters
I'm trying to get/read the response from a POST request made in Angular 7, if I set the API to return "text" everything is OK, but when i make the response a JSON the response body on Angular is null.
If I try the API on Postman I get full response JSON body.
I tried changing response method on Express API (from the simple res.json() to the "old" way of declaring Content-Type and sending it with res.end()), nothing changed.
The response code I'm using on backend:
res.status(200).json({
success: true,
token: token
})
What I also tried:
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' })
var json = JSON.stringify({
success: true,
token: token
})
res.end(json)
The service I'm using on Angular:
login(username: string, password: string): Observable<any> {
let body = {username: username, password: password};
let headers = new HttpHeaders();
headers.set('Content-Type', 'application/json');
return this.http.post(this.baseUrl + "/login/sign-in", body, {headers: headers, responseType: 'json', observe: 'response'});
}
The call to that service:
this.api.login("admin", "password").subscribe(result => {
console.log(result);
})
On Postman I get this result:
On Angular I get this (JSON):
On Angular I get this (TEXT):
Edit:
If I add anything before the JSON on the Express app, the body is no more null:
res.writeHead(200, { 'Content-Type': 'application/json' })
var json = JSON.stringify({
success: true,
token: token
})
res.end('some_char' + json)
The result (of course the response goes in error):
Edit 2:
I'm also trying (with no luck) with this simple version of the endpoint:
const express = require('express')
const app = express()
app.post('/login/sign-in', (req, res) => res.json({ value: 1 }))
app.listen(3000, () => {
console.log('App running on port 3000.')
})
Solution:
It was all a CORS problem, I added this to the backend and everything is working fine:
app.use(cors())
Spent a few minutes trying to find out why the body would be empty,
In my case, I had "mode":"no-cors" set in my fetch() options, therefore the returned value from the server would appear as "opaque"
redux fetch body is not use with no cors mode
I hope this can help !
that is my code in helper signin router
so I'm trying to set cookie to browser after confirm sign in
exports.signin = (req,res) => {
db.User.findOne({email:req.body.email}).then(user => {
user.comparePassword(req.body.password,function(err,isMatch){
if(isMatch){
let token = jwt.sign({userId: user.id},process.env.SECRET_KEY,{ expiresIn: 60*5 });
res.setHeader() //here I wanna send header Bearer to the browser
} else {
res.status(400).json({message:"Incorrect Password!"});
}
})
})
.catch(err => {
return res.status(404).send('No user found.');
})**strong text**
}
Authorization header is a client header, you cannot set it on the server(Server does not need authorization). You need to send it in a JSON response and then handle it in the client side.
Your server sends a JSON response with the token.
Your client sets the Authorization header and send it to any route that reaquires authorization
javascript client example:
var myHeaders = new Headers()
/**you need to get the token and put it in myToken var.
Where to store the token is the real question, you need
to take care about the storage you choose beacause of
the security risks*/
myHeaders.append('Content-Type','application/json; charset=utf-8');
myHeaders.append('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + myToken);
fetch( '/myurl', {
credentials: 'include',
headers: myHeaders,
method: 'GET'
}).then( res => {
return res.json();
}).then( res => {
/**your stuff*/
});
Then in your server check for the headers and you will see the Bearer
In Node.js res.setHeader() and Express js res.header() is an alias of res.set() method.
you can use in following ways :
res.setHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer '+ token);
res.header('Authorization', 'Bearer '+ token);
But I recommend you to read jwt example (angularjs & node) : https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/token-based-authentication-with-angularjs-nodejs--cms-22543
