I am using restangular to talk to a RESTful api. The API requires a valid token to authenticate against.

Users in the app have logged in and have a generated token. How do I set the default headers/intercept requests after login to include this token header.

I have been able to do it when I first bootstrap the application using RestangularProvider.setFullRequestInterceptor but the user has not logged in at this stage and does I can not therefore insert he header.

If you want to add it to the header, look at $http.defaults object\array. Since Restangular also uses $http this would affect Restangular too.

You can inject $http into the service which gets the access token and that service can add to the defaults.

Check $http documentation http://docs.angularjs.org/api/ng.$http

But is it possible to do it with RestAngular? – STEVER Mar 4 '14 at 9:23
    
There is this question here stackoverflow.com/a/18867662/3836923 where the op ended up using a full request interceptor to inject the headers. – inkalimeva May 18 at 21:17
