Logging out from SPA using Laravel api

Question

I have two applications: SPA built with Vuejs 3 and the API built with Laravel. the SPA is running on 127.0.0.1:5173 and the api is running on 127.0.0.1:8000 The user can authenticate successfully but I Want logging out it's not working, the user stays authenticated without any error thrown

logout function :

public function logout(Request $request)
    {
        if(method_exists(auth()->user()->currentAccessToken(), 'delete')) {
            $request->user()->currentAccessToken()->delete();
        }
        Auth::guard('web')->logout();
        $request->session()->invalidate();
        $request->session()->regenerateToken();
        return response()->json([
            'success' => true,
        ]);
    }

axios request :

 logout() {
          return new Promise((resolve, reject) => {
            axios
              .post('/api/v1/auth/logout')
              .then((response) => {
                resolve(response)
              })

logout route :

//api.php
Route::prefix('/v1')->group(function () {
    Route::group(['prefix' => 'auth'], function () {
        Route::post('logout', [AuthController::class, 'logout'])->middleware('auth:sanctum');
    }); 
.....

if you are using sanctum for your APIs you could do something like this for logging out the user

use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Auth;


    function logoutout(Request $request)
    {
        $request->user()->tokens()->delete(); //to delete the token
        Auth::logout(); //to logout your web
        return response()->json([
            'success' => true,
        ]);
    }
