I tried everything and I keep getting 401 error when I try to reach my api from a react App.
My Api is a asp.net core protected with Identity server.
From Postman, I can request an access token and call api and it works fine.
From the the browser, I can get a valid access token, but any api calls failed with 401.
The exact request that failed in the browser, works fine on postman (copy as cUrl from dev tool, then import in postman).
I'Ve tried both http and https, I'Ve check the order of element in startup, I'Ve configured the CORS...nothing.
I'm using the same web app both as Identity Server and Api server.
This is my startup file:

});

}
}
this is my identityserver client settings:

This is an example of a request that fail in the browser but works in postman:
