Hey guys, How can I remove Bearer keyword from authorization token in Ktor. I don't want to use these keyword in my api call. I think it call authorization header, but I am not sure. Thanks

install(Auth) {
    bearer {
        loadTokens {
            BearerTokens("u_b6I4kItp", "xyz111")
        }
    }
}

This is part of the protocol to define the authentication method. You can have a look at the definition over here https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc1945#section-11 and for OAuth2 https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc6750#section-2.1

Hey @Chrimaeon thanks for reply. I got it, Is there any other way to remove that header bcoz I am getting 401 in my api call

You can create the header field on your own without the „Plugin“ then you have full control over the value. There should be a „Default Headers“ plugin that you should be able to use.
