Please help. :/

I have same issue, looks like "api" guard not contain attempt method. Changing default guard to "web" fixed my problem.

config/auth.php:

    'defaults' => [
        'guard' => 'web',
        'passwords' => 'users',
    ],

Also you can define guard in your controller with Auth::guard('web')->attempt($credentials)

But it returns boolean, not the api token
