Hi.

If you're using XMLHttpRequest, you could so something like this:

var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();

xhttp.onreadystatechange = function()
{
    if (this.readyState == 4 && this.status == 200)
		console.log("request complete");
};

xhttp.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + localStorage.getItem("jwtoken"));
xhttp.open("GET", "filename", true);
xhttp.send();

Have you tried it?

Please let us know.

Hello Joao, you already help me (i changed to a new account but in the past already asked and you answered) anyway thanks!

 i am trying to use something like this :

var reqCurrent = new XMLHttpRequest();
reqCurrent.open("GET", "URL", true);

reqCurrent.setRequestHeader('Authorization', 'Bearer ' + 'Token');
reqCurrent.addEventListener("load", currentLoader);
reqCurrent.send();

but i getting "CORS Policy error" , this is from server configuration or my fault?

Thanks a lot,

Awesome! Really good to know!

Have you tried something like this:

xhttp.setRequestHeader("Access-Control-Allow-Origin", "*");

If that doesn't work, then you probably have to configure the server.

It doesn't work.... i think is something from server configuration...

Hello again.

Sorry for the late reply.

Did you manage to solve the problem? If it's really a server issue, I don't think I'll be able to help you much. I'm a front-end guy.

[EnZhoCR]

no i can not solve.... so it's server side.
