    headers: {
      Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
      Accept: "application/json"

  }

  return response.json();

AI Coding Instructions

• Treat Microsoft.Owin.Security as a server-side dependency configured in the Pams API OWIN pipeline, not as a browser package.
• Send authentication credentials through the expected HTTP header format when calling protected Pams API endpoints.
• Keep authentication middleware registration before routes or middleware that require an authenticated identity.
• Check the installed package version and related OWIN packages in Pams.API.csproj before changing authentication configuration.
