Why does JWT middleware throw "Error: invalid credentials structure"

[Swarz]

Simulated jwt and specified the Authorization header value, but it did not pass the verification.

1. decode info
2. throw error
   

how to verify through JWT middleware ?

Hi @Swarz

This error is likely because you are sending the token without prepending the type of token. Generally bearer is used, so you would set your authorization to Bearer my_jwt_token

thx,
then i have read line 14 of the jwt file (\hono\dist\middleware\jwt\jwt.js) to confirm that

    const credentials = ctx.req.raw.headers.get("Authorization");
    let token;
    if (credentials) {
      const parts = credentials.split(/\s+/);
      if (parts.length !== 2) {
        const errDescription = "invalid credentials structure";
        throw new HTTPException(401, {
          message: errDescription,
          res: unauthorizedResponse({
            ctx,
            error: "invalid_request",
            errDescription
          })
        });
      }
