JWT Authorization header not reaching api

Question

I deployed my laravel project on a shared hosting server that supports mod_rewrite and want to send a header called Authorization (JWT header) but it wont reach the controller.<

Answer 1

To evade Apache2 discards the authorization header I needed to add this code:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP:Authorization} ^(.*)
RewriteRule .* - [e=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%1]

To my .htcaccess file in my /public folder.
