I have a mobile application(mobile_users) and a backend to manage the system(system_users) i want to manage them in separate tables so basically to communicate with the mobile application i'm trying to use an api with JWT enabled and for the backend i'm using default auth method in laravel.
My problem is when i try to change the auth table for JWT it keeps on accessing the system_users table, even though the documentation says you can change the default User model path i tried changing but no luck,
Please help me with this,
I'm using https://github.com/tymondesigns/jwt-auth this library for JWT,
My Database Structure will be,
mobile_users_table = authentication using JWT
system_users_table = default laravel auth
