I am trying to unlock my endpoints (Controllers) with my JWT token that is sent to the user when they login. At the moment the register and login works and the user is sent a JWT token. However when I use postman or my Mobile application to send the JWT to the API I get a 401 Unauthorized error. I am using Asp.net 6 web API. I have added my Authentication Controller and my program.cs. I have my JWT key in my appsettings.json as well as the issuer and Audience. I am sure my error is in my program.cs

Let me know if you need more info Cheers Everyone
