please help me,
I want the stateless authentication for Rest api for login api to to get the token from it by using guard in it.
You might consider using Laravel Lumen because laravel by default uses session state.
In lumen you can be able to authenticate a user by using the new Auth::viaRequest() method. Docs here: https://lumen.laravel.com/docs/5.2/authentication

I am currently using a API to validate Login Credentials.
I have gotten to the point where I am sending username/password correctly.
This API will return a bolean, depending on if those credentials are correct.
Along with the entire user's information, including their address etc.
How can I correctly store this into Laravel Auth, so I can use Auth::user etc in blade?
I do NOT have Database access, only API access to validate user login details.
I cannot create a local - Laravel database, as this application has to be completely API based.
I am using Guzzle to query the API.
You should try using JWT for authentication, implementing your own API Authentication can cause some security issues if not done right.
Also JWT for Laravel already has support for Laravels Authentication system
I am newbie with laravel.
I understand that in order to protect routes, you have to first check if a user is authenticated and a session is made. thus, we apply auth middleware in the web routes.
However, I am trying to implement laravel passport and now I am not able to proceed to my routes anymore since I have been authenticated using the passport.
My question is that is it possible to secure the web routes with passport token instead of laravel session? and if so, how one should do it?
Thanks, sorry for english, not native speaker.
Laravel passport is for API routes not for web routes you can use laravel session for web
for more details read it's documentation
https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/passport
I have a database of users that work with web login based on laravel sessions. Now I want to generate an api token for each of these users for an api login, how can I generate it? I have already migrated to the database for this new column but I need each user to have their api token.
I'd recomment you to use Laravel Passport. APIs typically use tokens to authenticate users and do not maintain session state between requests. Laravel makes API authentication a breeze using Laravel Passport, which provides a full OAuth2 server implementation for your Laravel application in a matter of minutes.
If You need session mechanism then You should use Laravel Passport.
But if You are building traditonal stateless REST Api then you can use API Authentication
I'm new to Laravel. I learnt, Passport allows to authenticate API using OAuth2. But I needed solution to use API-Key in Passport to authenticate.
Can anyone provide any resource and information how could I achieve solution?
Me and my friend are creating an application. I'm using Laravel 5.4 as the backend and he uses Angular2 as frontend.
The Laravel project serves as a rest API with JWTauth token authentication.
Now I would like to make a small backend dashboard in the Laravel project that is only accessible by admins.
How would I go about using different authentication (with session) instead of tokens when I just browse to the api backend part?
This is pretty straightforward. Just apply the JWT auth middleware to the API routes and the normal auth middleware to your admin dashboard. You don't even need to tweak anything since JWT doesn't need changes to your table structure or need for changing the existing auth.
Build the backend dashboard using the built int auth scaffolding using the auth and guest middleware. For the api routes use the standard api middleware along with the jwt.auth middleware if you're using the tymondesigns/jwt-auth package. There will be no conflict with these two.
Bro use separate guard like
$loginUser = Auth::guard('web')->loginUsingId(12,true);
