origin with cookies vs Authorization header

I am using Spring Security for authentication of my REST API. The authentication is working fine and Spring Security returns a token with Set-Cookie . The rememberMe feature is turned on and the same is returned in the cookie.

When I make subsequent requests, the authentication fails unless I send the user name / password in the Authorization header, whereas when I test in postman it works. I see that it adds JSESSIONID in the cookie in the request.

Since the cookie as Http-Only cookie, I do not think that I can read them in my JavaScript function.

So how do I authenticate the user? I was under the assumption that if the server returns a cookie with set-cookie , the browser should automatically append it for each request.

Login client request:

context.$http.get(url, {
    headers:
    {
      'Access-Control-Allow-Origin': '*',
      'Access-Control-Allow-Methods': 'GET,PUT,POST,DELETE',
      'Authorization': auth
    }
  }

FYI: I use vuejs in the frontend.

After carefully looking at your response/request flow, you are originating requests from port 8080 to port 9000 which trigger same-origin policy(CORS) rules. CORS requests, by default, will not send credentials/cookies as documented in the link below. To enable credentials/cookies propagation, you need to set the "withCredentials" flag in your AJAX call.

Moreover, it looks like you are using vuejs. To enable withcredentials, you need to use the setting below.

Vue.http.options.credentials = true;
