Passing Token to other API

Guest User

I'm using JWT, I login to an API that return a token

api/Authentication/Login

{

"token": "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJodHRwOi8vc2NoZW1hcy54bWxzb2FwLm9yZy93cy8yMDA1LzA1L2lkZW50aXR5L2NsYWltcy9uYW1lIjoiYmx1ZWkyIiwianRpIjoiZTViMWFmZWItNDRjYi00NzBiLWJjZDAtYjU2ZjcyNjlhYzY0IiwiaHR0cDovL3NjaGVtYXMubWljcm9zb2Z0LmNvbS93cy8yMDA4LzA2L2lkZW50aXR5L2NsYWltcy9yb2xlIjoiQWRtaW4iLCJleHAiOjE2MTI5NDk4MzEsImlzcyI6Imh0dHA6Ly9sb2NhbGhvc3Q6NDQzMjMiLCJhdWQiOiJodHRwOi8vbG9jYWxob3N0OjQyMDAifQ.A5tuKSDXWbxkF_Fncrb44Itm_BVh5UmyUSrL3onFdb0",

"expiration": "2021-01-10T09:37:11Z"

}

How can I pass the token to other API like:

api/Product/GetAll

because my problem is the token how to pass it to an API.. Do I need to add a parameter "string token"?

You can use function like below:
public async Task CallApi()
    {
        string accessToken = await HttpContext.GetTokenAsync("access_token");

        var request = new HttpRequestMessage(HttpMethod.Get, "http://localhost:55600/identity");
        request.Headers.Authorization = new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", accessToken);
        HttpResponseMessage response = await HttpClient.SendAsync(request);

        if (response.StatusCode != HttpStatusCode.OK)
        {
            return Content(response.ToString());
        }

        return Content($"{await response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync()}");
    }

if you are using http client then follow below approach
public IActionResult GetProducts()
{
    string baseUrl = "http://localhost:49387";
    HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
    client.BaseAddress = new Uri(baseUrl);
    var contentType = new MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json");
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(contentType);
    client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Authorization =  new AuthenticationHeaderValue("Bearer", yourToken);
    HttpResponseMessage response = client.GetAsync("/api/Product/GetAll").Result;
    string stringData = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
    List data = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject>(stringData);
}
if you are using webclient /restclient or something else then do let me know.
