Http cookies in next
Hi everyone!
I'm trying to create a server-side component in Next.js that makes an API request and passes the data to child components. However, I'm running into an issue:
The endpoint I'm making the request to is protected and requires authentication via HTTP-only cookies. When I make the request server-side, I get a 422 status code with an error saying there's no cookie.
But when I add "use client" at the top of my file and run the request on the client side, it works, and I get the data successfully.
I really want to understand these concepts. How can I correctly send HTTP-only cookies in a server-side component to authenticate my request? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance! 😊
