Auth::check returns null when I set a guard

Question

I'm trying to make a multi-auth in Laravel 5.8, but I'm facing a problem. When I set a guard on my auth::attempt, login is done successfully, but auth::check and auth::user return false and null respectively.

It only works when I change default guard in my config/auth.php to my custom-guard.

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

To:

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

I'd like to use a lot of guards, not just one. And whenever I need to, return their data with Auth::user. How can I do that?

I think you also need to specify a guard when calling Auth::check/user - for example:

Auth::guard('yourGuard')->check()
