I am trying to build an app with Nuxt.js (not modified at all) connect it to a Strapi api and I am completely new to this. I followed the tutorial on the Strapi blog to deploy the Strapi api to Heroku and the Nuxt.js app runs locally. Both instances run fine on their own.
But now I when I try a get request (see below) I get the 401 (Unauthorized) response.
axios.get(
'url',
{headers: {
Authorization: 'Bearer ${token}'}
}
)
I tried creating different users and changing permissions. But I always get:
"statusCode": 401, "error": "Unauthorized", "message": "Invalid token."
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. I thought the password in the Strapi user panel is the JWT. Am I mistaken? I tried searching the documentation, stackoverflow, ...but couldn't solve my problem. Thank you for your help!

Based on the documentation, you need to login (POST /auth/local) to retrieve the JWT and use it in the Authorization
header for requesting a resource.

You need to use identifier, not username or email
https://strapi.io/documentation/developer-docs/latest/guides/auth-request.html#setup
const { data } = await axios.post('http://localhost:1337/auth/local', {
identifier: '[email protected]',
password: 'strapi',
});
