I have faced the same problem. And I am using Laravel Passport. It all about configuration. got to config/auth.php and change driver name of api array to passport within the guards array

'guards' => [
    'web' => [
        'driver' => 'session',
        'provider' => 'users',
    ],

    'api' => [
        'driver' => 'passport',//instead of token 
        'provider' => 'users',
        'hash' => false,
    ],
],
```
