@GopiKrishna10 … can you read the docs on https://angular.io/guide/http first?

@joesleiman I would recommend, that you check first, if the withCredentials property is already set. I just lost some time in debugging, why my http request wasn’t considering my withCredentials: false config:

    if (request.withCredentials === undefined) {
      request = request.clone({
        withCredentials: true,
      });
    }

EDIT: I just realized, that the default of withCredentials is false. So unfortunately this is not the correct way to skip this interceptor. But I found a solution that is using the header to indicate, that the interceptor should be skipped: https://stackoverflow.com/a/49047764/5816097.

It needs a little bit more code, but I don’t know another way to solve this issue.
