Cannot send Authorization Bearer Token using Springfox

Question

I\'m having trouble understanding why \"Authorization: Bearer __\" is not being sent in my api using Springfox 2.5.0. I have the following configuration:

private         


        

Answer 1

I am using 2.8.0 versions and below swagger configuration works for me. I mentioned in comments, everything was working fine for me for version 2.7.0 but then I upgraded to 2.8.0 and jwt token stopped being sent in request header. I am on Spring Boot version - 1.5.2.RELEASE .

Note that I wanted an UI where JWT token could be manually entered by user is format - Bearer ... and token should go in Authorization request header. Its not automatically integrated with OAuth server.

Answer 2

The below solution worked for me in swagger 2.8.0 version.

Add the below code in your Docket configuration

@Bean
    public Docket api() {
        return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
                .securitySchemes(Collections.singletonList(new ApiKey("JWT", "Authorization", "header")))
                .securityContexts(Collections.singletonList(
                        SecurityContext.builder()
                                .securityReferences(
                                        Collections.singletonList(SecurityReference.builder()
                                                .reference("JWT")
                                                .scopes(new AuthorizationScope[0])
                                                .build()
                                        )
                                )
                                .build())
                )
                .select()
                .apis(RequestHandlerSelectors
                        .basePackage("com.test.controller"))
                .paths(PathSelectors.regex("/.*"))
                .build().apiInfo(apiEndPointsInfo());
    }

In the text box after clicking Authorize button in the swagger UI, type Bearer "XXXXXXXX(Token)"

Answer 3

A simple workaround is to type Bearer than paste the token after it. You will end up with a text box that contains:

Bearer <token>

I wish there was a more automated way. But for now, it appears as though what goes in the text box simple get's pasted into the value section of a given header entry. I suppose the reason the prefix Bearer does not get injected automatically is because then Swagger would be quite opinionated about which sort of authentication its users used!

@Configuration
@EnableSwagger2
class SwaggerConfig {

    @Bean
    Docket api() {

        return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
                .select()
                .apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.any())
                .paths(Predicates.not(PathSelectors.regex("/error.*")))
                .build()
                .securitySchemes(securitySchemes())
    }

    private static ArrayList<? extends SecurityScheme> securitySchemes() {

        return [new ApiKey("Bearer", "Authorization", "header")]
    }
}

The REST endpoint method:

@GetMapping("/count")
@ApiOperation(value = "Count the number of entities associated with resource name. This operation does not requires any role." , authorizations = [@Authorization(value = "Bearer")])
def count() {

    count(service)
}

The curl command before logging in:

curl -X GET "http://localhost:8080/category/count" -H "accept: */*"

Response:

{
  "timestamp": "2018-10-29T15:13:02.388+0000",
  "status": 401,
  "error": "Unauthorized",
  "message": "Unauthorized",
  "path": "/category/count"
}

The curl command after logging in:

curl -X GET "http://localhost:8080/category/count" -H "accept: */*" -H "Authorization: Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzUxMiJ9..."

Response:

{
  "message": "There are 0 entities",
  "count": 0
}

Note: My code is in Groovy, I am sure you can translate if you are using standard Java.

Answer 4

I used springfox-swagger2 version-2.9.2 with below configuration and it works fine to pass JWT token via swagger-ui.

private ApiKey apiKey() {    
    return new ApiKey("apiKey", Authorization, "header"); 
}

@Bean
public Docket api() {
    return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2).select()
       .apis(RequestHandlerSelectors.basePackage("com.mycompany.dept.controller"))
       .paths(PathSelectors.any())
       .build().apiInfo(metaData()).securitySchemes(Lists.newArrayList(apiKey()));
}

And in controller we need to use @ApiOperation (value = "Get dummy by id.", authorizations = { @Authorization(value="apiKey") })

Please refer to https://github.com/springfox/springfox/issues/2194

The solution that worked for me with swagger versión 2.9.2 is the following:

package com.example.springsocial;

import springfox.documentation.builders.RequestHandlerSelectors;
import springfox.documentation.service.ApiKey;
import springfox.documentation.service.AuthorizationScope;
import springfox.documentation.service.SecurityReference;
import springfox.documentation.spi.DocumentationType;
import springfox.documentation.spi.service.contexts.SecurityContext;
import springfox.documentation.spring.web.plugins.Docket;
import springfox.documentation.swagger2.annotations.EnableSwagger2;

@Configuration
@EnableSwagger2
public class SwaggerConfiguration   {

    @Bean
    public Docket docket() {
        return new Docket(DocumentationType.SWAGGER_2)
                    .ignoredParameterTypes(AuthenticationPrincipal.class)
                    .select()
                    .apis(Predicates.not(RequestHandlerSelectors.basePackage("org.springframework.boot")))
                    .paths(PathSelectors.any()).build()
                    .securitySchemes(Lists.newArrayList(apiKey()))
                    .securityContexts(Arrays.asList(securityContext()));

    }

    private ApiKey apiKey() {
        return new ApiKey("apiKey", "Authorization", "header");
    }

    private SecurityContext securityContext() {
        return SecurityContext.builder().securityReferences(defaultAuth())
            .forPaths(PathSelectors.any()).build();
    }

    private List<SecurityReference> defaultAuth() {
        AuthorizationScope authorizationScope = new AuthorizationScope(
            "global", "accessEverything");
        AuthorizationScope[] authorizationScopes = new AuthorizationScope[1];
        authorizationScopes[0] = authorizationScope;
        return Arrays.asList(new SecurityReference("apiKey",
            authorizationScopes));
        }
}

Answer 6

I am using latest version of springfox(right now it's 3.0.0), and you can use specific bearer auth with HttpAuthenticationScheme instead of ApiKey:

HttpAuthenticationScheme
    .JWT_BEARER_BUILDER
    .name("JWT")
    .build()
