Skip requests from HTTP Interceptors for login request

Question

I have an angular application which intercepts all outgoing requests with HTTP Interceptor to add authentication token to the request. I dont want this for the login request. So that i have been using http module for this. How can I use httpClientModule for this purpose without intercepting with the HTTP Interceptor?

Answer 1

Use HttpBackend which will dispatch the request via browser HTTP APIs directly to the backend, without going through the interceptor chain.

import { HttpBackend, HttpClient } from '@angular/common/http';

  constructor(private httpClient: HttpClient, handler: HttpBackend) {
    this.httpClient = new HttpClient(handler);
  }

Then, use this instance of httpClient for REST.
