I'm trying to use an interceptor to add an 'Authorization' header to all my GET/POST requests. Here is the interceptor:
myApp.factory('httpRequestInterceptor', ['$rootScope', function ($rootScope) {
return {
request: function ($config) {
$config.headers['Authorization'] = 'Basic ' + $rootScope.apiKey;
return $config;
}
};
}]);
The interceptor is being used in the main module as follows in the myApp.config part:
$httpProvider.interceptors.push('httpRequestInterceptor');
For some reason I can't see the Authorization header in the network tab(I'm using Chrome) and it's not getting to the server and I don't get any errors. The GET/POST request in my application are to a remote server that is NOT in my domain.
Any idea what am I doing wrong here?
Solution: I found the problem, it was on the server side - apparently if I set the Access-Control-Allow-Headers in the response to * it doesn't work but if I specify the headers literally it works just fine.
