javascript - HttpOnly cookies are not sent with request to server - Stack Overflow

I've created API in node express and I'm running it on port :8000, I am consuming APIs through simple CRA on port :3000. I've created registration and login with setting httpOnly cookie. Furthermore, I've put middleware to check each endpoint in order to verify if it has that token. When I test through Thunder/Postman everything works, after logging in I get the cookie in response, I set that cookie as auth token and make request to get data and I get the data.

When I log in through the React Frontend it succeeds and I can see in network tab that I have received the cookie in response. But when I make a request to protected endpoint, the request does not have a cookie in it (I log ining requests on server and pare ones made with Thunder/Postman client and via app in Browser).

I use axios, and I've put {withCredentials: true} it doesn't work. I've used withAxios hook and it doesn't work either.

So the cause of the issue is not having the httpOnly cookie passed in the request header. This is the log of the middleware I am using:

• try to use cookie-parser middleware for express – wald3 Commented Feb 10, 2022 at 10:34
• @wald3 yeah, I'm using that, calling right under const app = express() still not working, doesn't matter what I try, the Authorization cookie, bearer token whatever you call it doesn't get sent with the request to the server – fedjedmedjed Commented Feb 10, 2022 at 13:46

After reading everything on CORS and httpOnly cookies I've managed to get it working. First I removed sameSite and added domain prop according to documentation in controllers/User.js on SERVER

res.cookie('auth-token', token, {
    httpOnly: true,
    domain: 'http://localhost:3000'
})

Then I got a little yellow triangle in the console request view, it said that domain was invalid. Then I just changed domain to origin and the cookie appeared in the request log of the headers
