Allow `Bearer` prefix when authenticating requests using a bearer token
Source: Kong/insomnia#4546 · opened by @dgatto
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When using Bearer tokens, if I copy a token from the from the request header, it comes with the prefix "Bearer eyxkstykx...". One must remove that "Bearer" prefix in order to make successful requests against their API. In other words, if I include the prefix, I get a 401 on my request. I don't know, however, if this is the expected behavior in order to avoid some security exploit.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice to be able to just copy the token from the request header, without having to manually remove the "Bearer" prefix every time. It's a small "ease-of-life" improvement, but one that'd be much welcome. 😄
